With radical advances in treatment and prevention of HIV, it’s easy to forget there are still more than a million Americans living with HIV, and tens of thousands who are not even aware that they are. It is no time to become complacent, especially with urban areas such as New York and San Francisco getting close to achieving to zero new seroconversions and medical researchers zeroing in on a potential cure. Both goals are probably close to a decade away, so don’t let down your guard down.
On World AIDS Day in a year when progress hangs in the balance, San Francisco AIDS Foundation asked staff, community members, and leaders about their commitment to supporting our community, advocating for health equity, and standing up for our rights.

Today is #WorldAIDSDay. We’ve made progress, but #HIV is still an epidemic. People are still getting infected due to stigma. People are still getting sick & dying for lack of access to healthcare. Let’s recommit ourselves to ending this epidemic. #ShowUp4HIV pic.twitter.com/yFH6vdnsqm

If you’re over it then no need to comment but we all know you will. Besides isn’t this what one of your past troll names got banned over? Spreading false information.

Jaxton spreads his lies. He used to spread his legs but he had no takers there so now you know why he is a bitter troll.
