WORLD AIDS DAY 2014

Each year, World Aids Day is observed on December 1st. This day is dedicated to raising awareness on the Aids epidemic caused by the spread of the HIV virus. Every 9.5 minutes someone in the United States alone is infected with HIV. The sad part is that 1 in 4 new HIV cases is among the ages of 13-24, what's even scarier is that most of them are unaware that they even contracted the virus.

By practicing safe sex as well as getting tested, we can do something to prevent the spread of this virus that has already claimed the lives of millions all over the world. Whether you are sexually active or abstaining from sexual intercourse, protecting yourself is a lot better than a positive test result.

Although there are people in the world living with the HIV virus, others do lose their fight against AIDS, so please always protect yourself, not only against HIV/ AIDS, but also against other sexually transmitted diseases. And remember, "Ignorance and fear are deadly partners in the fight against AIDS."- Unknown.

STERILE PROCESSING WEEK: INTERVIEW WITH STERILE PROCESSING TECHNICIANS
