The former ambbadador for HIV and AIDS, Joyce Dzidzor Mensah, said she had been tested again for HIV / AIDS, and the result was negative.

She told NEWS-ONE on Saturday that the test was done in Germany and that it was authentic.

"It's a more advanced test than the normal five-minute test. It is an advanced test of HIV. It does not only tell you that you do not have HIV / AIDS, even if you have the virus, it shows you how much virus you have in the blood. This is what is called an HIV confirmation test, "revealed Joyce Dzidzor.

"You might not understand, you have to give a doctor to explain the test report," she added.

In December 2014, Dzidzor publicly announced that she had been lying about her HIV / AIDS status for years and that she had never been tested positive for the disease before working for the HIV / AIDS Commission. Ghana on AIDS as an ambbadador for HIV / AIDS.

After this statement, she was invited by several media to defend her actions, although she received many criticisms from the Ghanaians and the Ghana AIDS Commission.

However, in 2016, she made a shocking U-turn to say that she had actually been tested positive for the virus.

She had to lie about her status to protect her children from stigma.

But currently, she says she has new test results to prove that she is HIV-negative and HIV-free.

"These are my HIV results. This result took a week to appear because it is more detailed than the instant test. This result looks for the HIV virus itself but not just the antibodies. This is more detailed because it brings the amount of virus to an infected person. When I entered a German hospital, that's what I chose and when I returned a week later to take my results, the doctor told me that I had no infection.

She circled the HIV virus and said it did not mean any detection, no infection. If the result is too complicated for you, show it to a professional so that he reads it to you. Those of you who torment my life on social media and in real life, you can now keep the results, laminate them and hang them in your room if that makes you happy.

Those of you who still stigmatize my children are now ceasing because you've seen it now, "she also said on Facebook when she released the result.
