New Hopes for Ending HIV/AIDS
HIV-AIDS

Since many years, researchers have been trying to find new ways to fight AIDS and finally, it seems like there can be an end to the so-called HIV/AIDS epidemic but, this would definitely not be simple enough. So, get ready to lend your support and help in action to eradicate this illness from its roots.

Approximately 25 million people have died all over the world due to AIDS, but no more because the Secretary of State Ms. Hillary Clinton on Tuesday announced about new collective efforts that have raised the hopes of all to see an AIDS-free generation ahead.

In her statement, the official talked about her new plan that was earlier built on the United States' previous global health efforts. She further highlighted three major actions that would help prevent the spread of AIDS to our next generation, which are as follows:

The most common passage through which AIDS is transferred to next generation is mother-to-child transmission. Thus, to block the spread of the disease through this path, the U. S. and its global partners have decided to vaccinate the pregnant mothers, who are suffering from HIV/AIDS with anti-retroviral medication. The 100 percent effective medication will stop HIV/AIDS from passing to their newborn babies.

Common transmission passage of AIDS is female-to-male transmission. U. S. has decided to increase the global health funding for voluntary male circumcisions, which would serve to lessen the transmission by more than 60 percent.

The government will be introducing anti-retroviral medications to people who are currently living with HIV/AIDS. The drug will not only save affected people's life, but will also ensure that people with HIV do not pass the virus on to others.
