<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > According to Ian Green, CEO of the Terrance Higgins Trust, Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, is said to remain committed to inheriting his mother, Princess Diana, in the fight against HIV/AIDS. </h1>
According to a charity chief, although Prince Harry has resigned as a senior member of the royal family, he remains passionate about the AIDS problem and is committed to addressing it.
Ian Green, chief executive of the HIV and sexual health charity Terrence Higgins Trust, spoke in an interview with The Mirror last month that the late Princess Diana, through her son Prince Harry, continues to have an impact on the work she did to fight HIV/AIDS.
Green said: "I've had the pleasure of meeting Princess Dai a few times, not about the Terrance Higgins Trust, but about other charities.
"I've noticed that Princess Diana is very sincere, and she'll get the pundits to make promises, but in a way that really makes people let their guard down." I certainly see that spirit in Prince Harry now. ”
The CEO of Terrence Higgins also spoke of Prince Harry's own insight into the importance of tackling HIV testing.
According to Ian Green, chief executive of the Terrence Higgins Trust, the Duke of Sussex remains committed to making AIDS a cause.
He revealed: "I mean, when I first met him three or four years ago, he implied that HIV was one of his real passions and one of the main reasons he was focused on, and he certainly kept his promise.
"When he was publicly tested for HIV, orders for HIV self-test kits on our website increased by 500 percent. He said very openly that everyone should know their status.
"Because if someone is HIV-positive and getting treatment, they're doing well now." So I think he's done a lot of work to encourage people to get tested, but at the same time, like his mother, continues to remove the stigma that people feel about the situation. So I think there are a lot of similarities between the two of them. ”
In 1991, Diana, Princess of Wales, met with patient Michael Kelly at Mildmay Hospital in east London.
In 2016, Prince Harry took an HIV test at the Burrell Street Sexual Health Centre in Southwark, London.
Green said that although the Duke of Sussex resigned as a senior member of the royal family earlier this year, he remained concerned about AIDS-related issues.
"He remains passionate and committed to making AIDS a cause," Green said.
He and our colleagues have published a report at the Elton John AIDS Foundation and the National AIDS Trust Council, hoping to see a country that ends the spread of new HIV in 2030, and the prince has publicly expressed his support and publicly stated.
So he's still active in the field. He's still there. I know that if we need his support and help, we can still turn to him. ”
Meanwhile, Ingrid Seward, a royal biographer and author of the new book Prince Philip Revealed, also told The Mirror that Diana was "very proud" of her philanthropic work and hoped that Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, would continue the cause.
Seward said: "Princess Diana's inheritance is her son, and her son inherits her business." So that means they're going to last forever, which is good. ”
