World AIDS Day 2022 - End AIDS. Equalize: Nigeria WorldAIDSDay
Every first of December, the world unites to commemorate World AIDS Day, showing support for people living with HIV and remembering those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses.
Yesterday, 29 November 2022, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS launched the 2022 World AIDS day report titled 'Dangerous Inequalities'. The report examines the inequalities impeding the end of AIDS globally while underlining the fact that only urgent action to tackle inequalities can get the global AIDS response back on track. It recommends strategies world leaders can employ to tackle these inequalities -- calling on them to do it courageously.
The book, 'From the Darkest of Days to a New Dawn: 35 Years of the Nigerian Response to HIV and AIDS' discusses Nigeria's action, leadership and response to HIV/AIDS since the first two cases were detected over 35 years ago in 1985.
