Help us ask key pharmaceutical companies to make AIDS drugs affordable

If you're on Twitter, you can RT the link above to help us ask Johnson and Johnson, Abbott, and Merck to put their patents in the Pool to increase access to HIV medicines. The patent pool is designed to lower prices of HIV drugs and increase access to them in the developing world. With a patent pool companies are financially rewarded, and patients benefit from access to more affordable medicines. More here.

December 1st:

WORLD AIDS DAY

————————————————————

Lack of education and stigma amongst societies is the reason HIV/AIDS has become a problem for mankind. I read in the paper, that according to a doctor, most of his female patients who are HIV+ are usually infected by their husbands who had previously been living abroad. Though there is talk of a law making it compulsory for couples to be tested before marriage, lack of education, (especially amongst women even in the upper classes), is leading not only in the spread of the disease, but the stigma of this disease
