Markers of World AIDS Day


HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) infection remains a major global public health threat. It is now known that the virus seeks and kills white blood cells of the human immune system, making the body defenceless against attacks by most micro-organisms from the outside and cancer promoters from the inside.

Since the 1980s, the final stage of HIV infection, referred to as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome or AIDS, has inflicted 70 million of the world’s population and claimed the lives of more than 35 million.
