One's simple ignorance can root a huge mutilation.

It is bad enough that people are dying of Aids, but no one should die of ignorance.” – Elizabeth Taylor

According to Health Secretary Teodoro Herbosa, the projected number of Filipinos living with HIV may increase significantly by 2030 -- from an estimated 215,400 in 2024 to 401,700 -- if services for HIV/AIDS prevention in general and PLHIV support continue to lack improvement.

Though HIV is a disease, which cannot be cured or eradicated from society, the only solution to HIV lies in its prevention and awareness. We must have our regular and periodical health checkup so that we don’t fall prey to such deadly diseases. The only way to fight the HIV disease is through creating awareness and ending the stigma.

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks cells that help the body fight infection, making a person more vulnerable to other infections and diseases. Over time, they cause Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a condition in which progressive failure of the immune system allows life-threatening opportunistic infections and cancers to thrive. Without treatment, the average survival time after infection with HIV is estimated to be 9 to 11 years, depending on the HIV subtype.

Let us recommit ourselves to build a a society free from HIV/AIDS. AIDS as a medical condition is non-communicable & does not spread through mere physical contact. The need of the hour is to destigmatize the disease & ensure a supporting ecosystem for patients

Together, we can end the stigma.

Touching an HIV positive person does not spread HIV. Nor does sitting with them.
