      Focusing on the implementation of antiretroviral HIV treatment in Tanga, the book delves into the complex infrastructural and social challenges faced by public clinics and patients. Through extensive ethnographic research, it highlights the ongoing struggles individuals encounter while navigating life with HIV, revealing that despite the widespread availability of ART, significant social, economic, and moral hurdles persist. These realities challenge the optimistic narrative surrounding the "normalization of HIV" in global discourse.
