We are celebrating World AIDS Day today and the AIDS Fund is calling for its attention. According to the director of Aidsfonds, Mark Vermeulen, "conservatism in the world is increasing and that touches the heart of the fight against AIDS".
Homosexuals
In the United States, half of African-American homosexuals are sooner or later HIV. In Russia, 80 people die each day from AIDS. In China, HIV is increasing rapidly among young homosexual men. And in Brazil, Indonesia and Eastern Europe, action against homosexual men, transgender people, drug addicts and sex workers is on the rise. According to the AIDS Fund, they are excluded from prevention and ways to save lives
In the Netherlands, HIV has long ceased to be a death threat and fewer and fewer people are infected with HIV, but elsewhere in the world it is different. Over the past year, nearly one million people worldwide have died as a result of the disease
2030
According to the AIDS Fund, optimism disappears: the internationally agreed goal that AIDS is out of the world by 2030 is achieved. The number of new HIV infections is not declining fast enough.
