The family of 10-year-old Asma believes she contracted HIV at her local hospital in Taunsa, central Pakistan, and she is now one of many children in the city with the incurable infection.
BBC Eye filmed undercover at the Tehsil Headquarter (THQ) hospital and found dangerous malpractice on the children’s ward, including the re-use of syringes and medicine vials.
The local government says there is no firm evidence linking the HIV cases to THQ, and the hospital’s medical boss claims BBC Eye’s secret filming is old or staged.
