Aids Corner

AIDS spreads because of risk behaviours rather than risk “factors”. Awareness can lead to an avoidance of these behaviours.

Despite the absence of preventive vaccine/medication and cure, there is an improvement in the quality of life for the AIDS patient. Yet, the stigma associated with AIDS prevents the patient from benefiting from the best care available.

This section attempts at raising awareness on HIV infection and AIDS. This section hopes to fight the stigma people with HIV face and provides tips on coping with the disease. You can also view Dr Sunithi Solomon’s views on AIDS and management.
