Anambra Fifth In HIV Transmission In Nigeria – Agency by Ndimkpurummiri(m): 7:47am On Sep 09, 2022 |
The Anambra State Aids Control Agency has revealed that the state is the fifth highest in Nigeria in terms of HIV transmission among people between 15 to 49 years. The Executive Director of the agency, Mr Johnbosco Ementa, made stated this during a two-day stakeholders meeting organised by the body in Awka, on Thursday. Ementa said that the forum was organised for various stakeholders to brainstorm on how best to scale up campaign to eliminate HIV transmission in the state. He pointed out that the meeting was an opportunity to interact, share knowledge and highlight challenges facing the state in terms of HIV transmission, with a view to addressing them. He lamented the situation saying that the agency was working tirelessly with stakeholders to mitigate the impact. He said, “It is unfortunate to note that Anambra is the fifth highest in Nigeria in terms of HIV transmission among people aged 15 to 49 years. “The agency is working tirelessly to ensure its reduction or elimination by promoting behavioural change in both low and high population, increase awareness and sensitisation among the general population. Once upon a dream in Anambra “We are are also working with targeted stakeholders, to mitigate the impact of HIV/AIDS in the state. “Let me also inform you that plans are underway to domesticate the 2014 HIV Anti Stigma Bill in Anambra State.” The state Commissioner for Health, Dr Afam Obidike, on his part, called for more efforts to reduce HIV transmission in the state. Obidike, who was represented by the Director, Public Health, Dr Afam Anaeme, said that HIV prevention is a task that should be accomplished and sustained in the state. “The pattern of transmission of the disease has made prevention a bit difficult in the state but Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s administration is determined to give residents quality healthcare service delivery. “I urge the agency to do more to ensure that the transmission of HIV is drastically reduced in the state,” he said. https://punchng.com/anambra-fifth-in-hiv-transmission-in-nigeria-agency/?utm_term=Autofeed&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1662688986 |

Ndimkpurummiri: What's the name of your state? You never can tell - it could be the first BTW, if Nigerian medical scientists had been really smart like we falsely claim here, someone would have found the permanent cure for HIV. Americans have tried their best and have invested so much in the research to find the remedy. Must everyone keep waiting for the Americans for everything? What are the Chinese and Russians doing? Anyone who finds the cure of HIV is made for life. Finding solutions to problems is the easiest way of becoming wealthy. That's what placed the world's richest people where they are. 2 Likes |
