#WAD2020 is “Global solidarity, shared responsibility”

World AIDS Day on 1 December brings together people from around the world to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS and demonstrate international solidarity in the face of the pandemic. The day is an opportunity for public and private partners to spread a awareness, commemorate those who have died, and celebrate victories such as increased access to treatment and prevention services.
Having achieved the global target reversing the spread of HIV, world leaders have set the 2020 “Fast-track” targets to accelerate the HIV response and to “End AIDS by 2030”. But with Covid-19 we are back to the drawing board as most Governments paid attention and diverted efforts to pandemic and forgot #HIV and #TB and #Malaria The theme of World AIDS Day 2020 is “Global solidarity, shared responsibility”. Our solidarity with #HIV and Aging and vulnerable families @the time of #COVID-19. COVID-19 is showing once again how health is interlinked with other critical issues, such as reducing inequality, human rights, gender equality, social protection and economic growth.
