I have always said that when fighting AIDS, one has to deal with the other epidemics as well.
Recent BBC article |

It's amazing, I actually did a report on AIDS in South Africa for my research project. It was unbelievable how many people actually have it, and how unaware alot of the people in the world are. World AIDS days will hopefully spread a little bit of awareness around the globe, an excellent thing if you ask me. |

The awareness level is getting there but there's still a lot of people who aren't aware of AIDS, malaria, TB among other diseases and their implications. Not to mention the toll they are taking in Africa especially. I hate to repeat myself over and over but the life expectancy is in the 30s in some of those places! |

What, never hear about the hunger site?
Also, lol at the implication that we haven't done a good job fighting AIDS. The majority of people don't have it, and that's good, really. Just imagine what would happen if back in the early 80s people ignored it 
What would be nice, though, is if everyone who had AIDS just did not practice sexual behavior. |

Company gives $1 if you play?   I'll try it after but that sounds quite strange. Good, but strange. |

Yeah, it was on Friday. And I meant to post it then. But I was tired. and I hate creating new topics.
enable flash., play flash game. company gives 1 dollar to research. |

I'd actually go to the site to see just when it says it is, but it requires Flash, so no go.
*Xkeeper does not like enabling Flash for anything. |

This was last Friday, actually.
My friend campaigned World AIDS Awareness Day around my school, so I heard all about it. 8,000 people die every day from AIDS. I do what I can with it, donate when I can, and promise to not get it and help spread it. HOORAY. |

I'm wit Dracoon -- I'd rather just plop down a $5 into a donation jar (which I do whenever I pass by the one in the movie theater ... now if I'd just go more often  ) |
| Sinfjotle Posts: 1622/1697 |
I wish they had a jar or something I could just slip five dollars into, going through the credit card bullshit is always a pain in the ass. |

Yeah, that time of the year again where we're forced to remember how much we've fucked up on combatting something that we could've stopped.
Currently there are millions of North Americans infected, with numbers exploding in South America, Russia, Ukraine, India, China, Bangladesh, across the Middle...Well, I think you get the point. It is a damned tragedy. Anyways, light a candle. A dollar gets donated for research. https://www.lighttounite.org/ |
