World Aids Day falls on 1 December each year and is an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, to show support for people living with HIV, and to commemorate those who have died from an AIDS-related illness.This is particularly important in 2021 when people have struggled more than ever to reach support groups, and outreach in the community because of the coronavirus pandemic.The date for World Aids Day has been observed by UN member states every year since 1988 in a show of support for those currently living with the condition.The virus was only identified in 1984, when it sparked a huge international scare and was WRONGLY assumed to only affect members of the LGBT+ community, but has already killed 35m people and infected 78m around the globe.In the UK, approximately 101,000 people currently suffer from HIV out of an estimated 36.9m worldwide, with 5,000 new cases diagnosed in Britain annually.However, not everybody is equipped with the facts on how to protect themselves and others, and stigma and discrimination remain a life-changing reality for people living with HIV.According to the National Aids Trust (NAT) one in five people living with HIV say that they have needed help with loneliness. Meanwhile, three-quarters of people living with HIV who report loneliness and isolation say they haven’t been able to find that help.As such, the organisation is calling for peer support services to be made available across the UK so that people can access the help they need, when they need it, and wherever they are.World leaders all use the occasion to reaffirm their commitment to eradicating the disease, a goal the UN hopes to achieve by 2030.(article - The Independent) ...
