This country joins the international community today in observing World AIDS Day 2015 under the theme, ‘Getting to ZERO’, with the local slogan ‘Supporting Positive Living Community by Community’.

Ferosa Roache, Director of the HIV/AIDS, STIs program in the Ministry of Health, says that despite the significant strides that have been made over the years, HIV/AIDS remains a serious public health threat.

She says World AIDS Day therefore provides an opportunity for people to unite in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Ms. Roache noted that greater commitment must be given to achieving the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS (UNAIDS) goal to accelerate action to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.
