Bug Chasers: The Men Who Want HIV

This documentary, produced by Channel 4 Television, runs for 20 minutes and features Nathaniel Hall as he investigates the phenomenon of 'bug chasing'. The film provides an unflinching look at individuals who pursue this extreme lifestyle, including interviews with both 'chasers' and 'gifters'.

Hall speaks with a man who actively avoids PrEP, a medication that prevents HIV transmission, and meets another individual willing to transmit the virus. The documentary raises questions about the motivations behind this dangerous behavior, especially as HIV continues to pose serious health risks more than forty years after its first diagnosis.

With its exploration of a topic that is both provocative and complex, 'Bug Chasers' invites viewers to consider the implications of such choices within the community.
