Yes, and I mentioned in my remarks a number of the groups that have been particularly subject to stigmatization and in some cases criminalization and harassment. That includes gay rights activists, sex workers, and people who use drugs. While there is an emerging gay community in China, which has always obviously been there but is now starting to emerge into the light as part of civil society proper--certainly that is more the case in some larger urban centres--it is still the case that there is considerable infringement of freedom of expression in some cases for discussion of gay rights, for example, in China. Certainly doing the work of HIV prevention among gay men in China is hindered by police action sometimes, often at the local level.
There's an interesting disconnect, it seems, going on--well, a number of disconnects going on in China--and one of them is that on one hand, at the central government level, there is some progress that's been made in actually trying to put in place protections against discrimination related to HIV, not protections necessarily for discrimination based on sexual orientation. They're not there yet. On the other hand, that policy directive at the national government level doesn't necessarily always translate down to what happens at the local government level. Obviously, when you have people who are speaking up for gay rights, who are speaking up for access to treatment for people who were infected, whether it was through blood collection schemes or not, local government officials see that as a challenge, particularly if they may have had some connection to the blood schemes, and then they have a considerable incentive to crack down on any dissent.
