1st of December every year is world AIDS day . The first world AIDS day was commemorated on 1st December 1988 , 22 years on .The slogan for this year is :
“Universal Access and Human Rights”

According to statistics. At the end of 2009, 33.3 million [31.4 million–35.3 million] people were estimated to be living with HIV, up slightly from 32.8 million [30.9 million–34.7 million] in 2008. This is in large part due to more people living longer as access to antiretroviral therapy increases. An estimated 2.6 million [2.3 million–2.8 million] people became newly infected with HIV in 2009, nearly 20% fewer than the 3.1 million [2.9 million–3.4 million] people infected in 1999. .

To some HIV / AIDS is just like a therapy , AIDS IS REAL . Some got infected unknowingly by birth . Its not a virus which infects people by chance because it can be you ... or me . Lets spread the message , avoid stigma and discrimination .Remember ABC ! Abstinence , Being faithful , Condom . Abstinence is the best way to avoid this .GET TESTED AND BE FREE.
