Davis Kana has recounted his difficult journey with a prolonged illness, revealing that his family knew he was HIV positive before he was informed of his diagnosis by medical personnel.
Speaking during an interview on the Cleopatra Wanjiku Podcast , Kana described how he spent years seeking treatment as his health continued to deteriorate, without understanding the cause of his condition.
He said doctors had communicated his HIV status to members of his family, but he remained unaware of the diagnosis, a situation he attributed partly to the stigma surrounding HIV at the time.
