World AIDS Day is held on 1 December each year to help raise awareness about HIV and AIDS. HIV is still a global epidemic – there are 39.9 million people around the world living with the virus.

Hopefully their discussion informs and empowers you with knowledge about prevention, treatment, and the importance of support.
