(ĐN)- A variety of activities have been held across the city in response to the National Action Month for HIV/AIDS Prevention and the World AIDS Day (December 1).
With the theme of “Zero New HIV Infections”, the National Month aims to build an action program to combat HIV/AIDS with the coordination of relevant agencies at all levels. The action plan will go ahead with other programs to combat drugs and prostitution to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS infection.
Bien Hoa has 2,612 people living with HIV, 925 of whom have died of the disease so far. To step up the fight against the fatal epidemic, since the beginning of the year, the city’s health sector has focused on disseminating information about HIV/AIDS, raising public awareness of effective ways to prevent the disease and eliminating discrimination against HIV carriers.
