World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Director for Africa, Dr. Matshidiso Moeti, has said the African region continues to be most affected out of the 25.6 million people living with HIV worldwide.

She said this in her message to commemorate the World AIDS Day which is celebrated globally every December 1, adding that, WHO support people living with HIV and remember those who have lost their lives to AIDS.

“This year, the theme is “Equalise ” urging each one of us to address the inequalities driving the epidemic and holding back progress in ending AIDS,” she said.

She added that ending inequalities and getting on track to end AIDS by 2030, the heads of state and government are committed to end all inequalities faced by people living with and affected by HIV in communities and countries, which are barriers to ending AIDS.

Dr. Moeti added that progress has been made over the past decade, reducing new infections by 44% and reducing AIDS-related deaths by 55%.

WHO representative said: “This progress was made because WHO and partners advocated for and supported the expansion of new HIV prevention and treatment technologies; provided guidance on combination HIV prevention, testing and treatment; built capacity in countries to improve data availability and quality; increased access to affordable medicines, diagnostics and health technologies and supported national HIV treatment catch up plans in west and central Africa.”

If you have slept with someone without using protection, you need to go for HIV test.

The earlier you know your HIV status, the better for you because you will start accessing ARV drugs to keep living your normal life.

Not knowing your HIV status when you have had series of unprotected sex is like postponing the doom's day.

The reason is that if you discover it late, it would have probably become AIDS that time. In that case, you just go and print your obituary posters yourself.

HIV is not the death sentence!

Happy World AIDS Day!


To every guy reading this comment....

I don't intend to scare you

The good thing is that guys have a narrow sex organ that makes it a little more difficult to contract the virus, unlike the females.

What knowing one's status does for him is that it helps him to live a purposeful life and stop having unprotected sex.

Many ladies enjoy and prefer unprotected sex. But as a guy, you have to say NO if you were once enjoying it and know that God has given you a second chance now. Knowing one's HIV status on time is critical.

Any guy reading this post who has been there, just know that HIV is not as common as people paint it. If you have dated a couple of girls and had unprotected sex with them, you have nothing to worry about.

However, if you have been sleeping with every girl that comes around you and doing census, you have so much to worry about. Either way, you need to know your status.

Good luck....

If you checked well, it's that gender that spreads their LEGS for anything that has money that will take at least 70% of the total infected.
MOST OF THESE YOUNG SLÚTS AND WHOREṢ WHICH INCLUDES;

Yours wives...
Your fiancées and girlfriends...
Your sisters
Your cousins etc
carry numerous STDs about and many of them also have bodycount GREATER THAN THEIR AGE FIGURES.

Or how many of them are still virgins?
Did you marry your wife as a virgin

I know one idiót will still quote me to say that it's not only through sexual encounters that one contracts HIV, but the fact still remains that MORE THAN 90% OF CASES CAME THROUGH SEX.

Also, infection rates and transmission from male to female is 100%, while from female to male is 50%.

I THINK VIRGINITY TEST SHOULD BE A ROUTINE AND FREQUENTLY PRACTICED.
IT'S WOMEN THAT USUALLY AND "NORMALLY" GIVES CONSENT FOR SEX, SO IF GIRLS LEARN TO CLOSE THEIR LEGS AND REMOVE GREED FROM THEIR SOULS, THE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER PLACE.
