How can I protect myself and others from HIV infection?

In addition to the obvious information given above…learning to speak about this HIV/AIDS with your friends, family, and community. Remove the stigma often attached to this disease and the shame caused by the judgement of peers.
This is especially true of women and HIV. In general women are great communicators. When it comes to HIV, they often feel judged, shunned, and isolated by others perceptions of the disease.
As HIV/AIDS has become a chronic disease and not terminal, less and less attention is given to education, awareness and a cure. Funding has been taken away from many programs designed to educated the public. Clinics and sexual health facilities are unable to afford condoms for their clients (who typically can’t afford to purchase them).
Infection rates are on the rise in heterosexuals. While new infections are still more prevalent in the Gay community, low-income heterosexual women in large cities are definately starting to challenge the boys numbers.
Teenages and college age students are also on the rise in the statistics.

What can you do for World AIDS Day? Call a friend and say hello, talk about what you know about AIDS. If you want volunteer for an AIDS group, church or other support facility. Or Simply just go out and realise how thankful you should be for the incredible life you have in you.
