Orbit Clanton is an HIV/AIDS activist, advocate, and public speaker. In 1982, Orbit was diagnosed with what doctors called “GRID” or “gay-related immune deficiency,” now known as HIV. Remaining skeptical for 20 years, a trip to the emergency room in 2001 caused him to come to terms with his diagnosis. Today, Orbit is an HIV treatment activist and the co-founder of Perceptions for People with Disabilities, a New York City-based organization that helps people who are living with HIV and are visually handicapped, hard of hearing, or mentally challenged. He continues to support various AIDS organizations, including serving as a Civil Society Partner at UNAIDS.
About The Cure Chronicles:
There are more than 38 million people in the world currently living with HIV/AIDS. At American Gene Technologies® (AGT™), we believe there is hope for a cure. But it will take everyone working together to make it a reality and permanently end the suffering of millions of people living with HIV today.
AGT is testing a single-infusion cell therapy (AGT103-T) to hopefully cure people living with HIV. Meanwhile, we want to spotlight some of the many people in the HIV community who strive to keep hope alive and tip the odds toward success.
The Cure Chronicles video series features thoughtful conversations with people living with HIV, advocates, medical experts, policymakers, and others working hard toward the shared goal of ending the devastating HIV epidemic.
