HIV/AIDS HOTLINE NUMBER: 0800-0123-22
The HIV/AIDS pandemic is arguably the most
important health issue facing South Africa at present. HIV/AIDS does not
discriminate on race, ethnic, gender, or regional grounds. The repercussions of
the virus permeate through to the entire population in the effect that HIV/AIDS
has on the economy of the country and on South Africa's social structure.
What most people don't realize is that everyone
can contribute to the effort being made to overcome the HIV/AIDS problem. By
simply talking about the issue and creating awareness of the danger posed by
unprotected sex, you too may be able to save someone's life. It is important to
remember that prevention is always better than cure.
The links provided should answer any questions you have on HIV/AIDS. Take the
time to browse through these sites and learn more about the problem. The
solution is going to involve a concerted effort by all South Africans.
