You’re right, HIV has no face, but it also has every face. No one is protected, which is why evneyore should be. I think you should just draw some people, but forget the clinic background. It would be much more powerful to show that there is no line between the two in appearance. I’ve been HIV+ for a decade now and I’m a professional graphic designer. I don’t, however, usually find myself walking in front of AIDS clinics! But go with your gut; make a point.
