One Love to Halve HIV infections? 25/01/09
January 25, 2009
Health minister, Barbara Hogan, is optimistic that the rate of new HIV and Aids infections can be halved within the next two years through the One Love campaign, which was launched in Orlando, Soweto on Saturday.
The campaign seeks to educate people about having no more than one sexual partner.
Hogan said that poverty was driving many women to prostitution and that poverty was the main cause of this.
"We must find out what is motivating people to act this way, we need to speak to communities and get to the root of what causes this," she said. – Sapa
