Today, December first, is World AIDS Day. Spreading awareness of the HIV/AIDS crisis and informing people of prevention methods, facts, and the dire immediacy of this pandemic is key if this international effort is to be a success.As this year's theme is leadership, it is important to remember that AIDS is not only a threat to one cultural group, a solution will require a variety of leaders from different backgrounds and cultures. HIV/AIDS affects women, men, the rich, and the poor.
AIDS does not care how large your checking account is. AIDS doesn't know what college you went to. AIDS isn't racist or sexist. AIDS will not, and does not, discriminate.
AIDS is a global problem and requires a global solution. The first step is just wearing a ribbon and staying informed. Picking up a newspaper and putting on a pin never hurt anybody.
