Today, on April 10, we observe National Youth #HIV & #AIDS Awareness Day, highlighting the significance of prioritizing the health and education of young people in their diversity. By providing effective school-based #HealthEd programs, we equip young people with the necessary knowledge to prevent and manage HIV, promoting a healthier future for all.

Even if you test HIV positive - life can go on as positively as before - taking ART (pill a day) can lead to Undetectability (low levels of virus) which means Uninfectiousness UequalsU ! @DTHF_SA
Ready to initiate U=U for heterosexual men in Cape Town, South Africa! @drmedinamarino @abuttenheim @dvora_davey @hthirumurthy @LindaGailBekker @DTHF_SA @PennCHIBE @NIHfunding @NIMHgov reporter.nih.gov/project-det…

Pleasure to meet w/ @FirstLadyNam in Addis Ababa ahead of #AUSummit! We discussed shared priorities advancing women’s & girls’ #health in Africa. My team & I are committed to working with First Ladies to close the gender equity gap for impact in health, education & other sectors.

It's not medicine that's holding us back. We need to update the world on #HIV. During #UNGA, we're advocating to make #HIV a priority again. It's not over yet. Help us #UpdateHIV! @ohhhfoundation @YAA_intl – at New York, NY

The young people of @YAA_intl wrote an open letter to the head of WHO to call for changing the name 'HIV', to change the stigma. @DrTedros responded. All this through @Twitter. How can this medium die? It shouldn't. #worldAIDSday2022
Wholeheartedly agree on the need to intensify efforts around HIV. My thanks for the letter, which I will read with interest. #WorldAIDSDay

The programs of our initiative @YAA_intl thus “focus on bridging that gap through advocacy and health literacy programs that seek to capacitate young women to end the #stigma against their sexuality, and to take charge of their #sexualhealth." - @bongioar (2/3)

We must never forget the pain and despair on seeing multitudes of young people die of an incurable disease whilst life prolonging treatment was available in richer countries in the north - PEPFAR helped to right that wrong and save millions @PEPFAR @IngridKatzMD @JRatevosian
Twenty years ago today - @GeorgeWBushJr44 announced the creation of one of the boldest global health endeavors ever undertaken by the US Govt. It is impossible to overstate the impact that @PEPFAR has had on the global HIV/AIDS Pandemic - saving over 25 million lives. 1/2

Today is #EducationDay! In 2018, 34 million secondary school-aged #girls in Africa did not have access to secondary education and there is still a huge gap between #sexualeducation and adolescent women, who are most vulnerable and at risk of #HIVinfection! (1/3)

Ever heard of #PrEP❓ #PrEP (Pre-exposure prophylaxis) is a #safersex method and a real game changer in the prevention of #HIV. #PrEP is taken by people who are not living with HIV and dramatically reduces the risk of #HIVinfection! Learn more on #PrEP in today’s #FAQFacts 👇🏻

Grateful that we were able to deliver our #WorldAIDSDay open letter in person to @WHO and @mdoherty_hiv in Geneva. Let's give the world an update. #UpdateHIV – at Los Angeles, CA
In our open letter we address @DrTedros and call for the renaming of #HIV to end the #stigma. Yesterday, we had the great honor to hand over and discuss our approach with @mdoherty_hiv and her team at the @WHO HQ in Geneva🇨🇭We are looking forward to an answer.
