Action Month for HIV/AIDS prevention launched

VGP – The National Committee for Prevention and Control of AIDS, Drugs and Prostitution has launched the Action Month for HIV/AIDS prevention and control in 2016 from November 10-December 10.

The targets aim that by 2020: 90% of people living with HIV will know their HIV status, 90% of people who know their status are on HIV treatment and 90% of all people on treatment will have undetectable levels of HIV in their body (known as viral suppression). Viet Nam’s commitment to these targets puts the country on course to end its AIDS epidemic by 2030.

The campaign is aimed at increasing the awareness of all people, especially among vulnerable people, high-risk people and people living in disadvantaged and remote areas, as well as reducing discrimination for HIV carriers, enhancing the assistance of households and society for HIV/AIDS –infected people and improving the quality of HIV/AIDS treatment and care services.
