| Response from Dr. Henry
 The vast majority of my HIV+ patients (both on and not yet on treatment) are able to work full time (8 or more hours/day). In cases where the patient is sick then reduced work hours or time off work is appropriate but less then 10-15% of my patients fit into that category and often their disability is due to a non-HIV related problem (history of injury, diabetes,mental health problems, etc).
