As the world gears up to
commemorate World AIDS Day, the AIDS Healthcare Foundation Zambia (AHF) is targeting to test
1000 people at its commemorative
event.
Under the theme, ‘Zambia at 50 towards zero stigma’, the commemoration will take place at the Chipata compound
grounds on Saturday, November 29.

“Our target is to link 80 percent of all who test
HIV positive to health centres for care and treatment. As we test and sensitise, we will also distribute condoms and refer all negative
men for male circumcision,” she said.
Joining the day’s event
will be several AHF Zambia
partners who will offer services such as circumcision, cancer screening, and
general health related services.
The commemoration will start with a march past led by the Zambia army band and majorettes to the Chipata grounds. At the grounds the support group will sensitise people through drama performances, songs, dances and a football competition.
AHF global is also on a mission to extend access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) to 20 million people by year 2020. The 20x20 campaign will be highlighted by asking citizens to add their red ribbon of support to a pin board on Saturday.
The campaign challenges the current shortfall of
treatment as currently only 12 million out of the estimated 35 million people
living with HIV worldwide are on treatment. PYM
