Using patient advocacy as a point of departure, there are three possible ethical options where the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is concerned: a 'strict advocacy' approach, a 'moderate advocacy' approach and a 'no advocacy' approach. In South Africa, a 'moderate advocacy' approach is favoured in general.
