Helen, sushi is best avoided for people with HIV due to the risk of foodborne illnesses from raw or undercooked seafood. Your immune system may be more vulnerable, making it easier to get sick. If you love sushi, consider cooked options like tempura rolls or those with fully cooked fish or vegetables. Always prioritize food Show Full Answer

I’ve heard that because it is raw fish, it is not recommended for POZ people because of possible bacteria. Check with your doctor.
