Gena Tew stated in her most recent video while explaining the various probable ways she may have caught AIDS, that she had been molested a few times while homeless and living in New York. She went on to say:
“I’ve gotten a few free tattoos, so it may have been a filthy needle.” Do I recognize any of those people? No. Did I say anything when those events occurred? No. Because I was inexperienced, ignorant, and young.”
The influencer also revealed in her health updates that she was ignorant of the diagnosis since she had not been examined in the previous 10 years. According to her videos, the influencer had the virus while she was between the ages of 17 and 19.
