Kurt Andersson-Norgaard is a clinical nurse consultant and sees people everyday who have internalised their sexuality leaving them vulnerable and exposed to the dangers from hidden behaviour.

He’s joined in the studio with Journalist Tim Brunero to discuss the challenges people from all backgrounds and cultures face with misconstrued messages.

We’re very lucky to now live in a society that is increasingly breaking down barriers for those in same sex relationships.

As well, the availability of information for those who might be struggling with internalised homophobia further reduces the risks of people being diagnosed with HIV.

How Much Do You Know? is a podcast series that looks at HIV now.

It’s brought to you by and produced in the studios of Eastside Radio located in Paddington Sydney in association with ViiV Healthcare.
