FEATURED FORUM THREAD: December is World Aids Month
Title:
December is World Aids Month
From Avert.org:
According to UNAIDS estimates, there are now 33.2 million people living with HIV, including 2.5 million children. During 2007 some 2.5 million
people became newly infected with the virus. Around half of all people who become infected with HIV do so before they are 25 and are killed by
AIDS before they are 35.
Around 95% of people with HIV/AIDS live in developing nations.
But HIV today is a threat to men, women and children on all continents around the world.
Started on 1st December 1988, World AIDS Day is about raising money, increasing awareness, fighting prejudice and improving education. World AIDS Day is important in reminding people that HIV has not gone away, and that there are many things still to be done.
Aids knows no boundaries and can infect anyone; man, woman, child, gay, or straight.
Everyone should be tested for Aids annually. Everyone should educate themselves about Aids.
