Joan Shenton is an award winning British broadcaster, medical journalist, a multi-award winning documentary filmmaker, humanitarian activist, and an early leader in uncovering controversies about HIV and AIDS in the late 1980s. Despite winning awards for her films she was eventually censored and for years could not work in the field. Joan has produced many films about AIDS -- including the historical documentary, "Positively False: Exposing the Myths around HIV and AIDS" and "Positive Hell", the story of former heroin addicts in Northern Spain who had been living with an HIV diagnosis for almost 30 years, almost entirely without drugs. Her more recent documentary Sacrificial Virgins exposes the physical and neurological damage caused to young girls taking the HPV vaccine before they become sexually active and calls for it being withdrawn
