1 dez 2014 ano - 6 Million South Africans have HIV/AIDS

Descrição:

Despite South Africa being the leading nation in HIV/Aids research, the country has the highest rate of infection and disease-related death - and less than half of South Africans living with HIV are receiving treatment.

December 1 marks World Aids Day, where people around the world unite in the fight against HIV and to show their support for those affected by the virus.

Currently, there are more than six million South Africans living with HIV, the biggest epidemic in the world, and only 2.7 million of those people are receiving HIV treatment, because of the work that the Treatment Action Campaign (TAC) has done.
