On World AIDS Day, we recognize the global impact of HIV/AIDS and the urgent need for preventive measures to protect public health. This day is a powerful reminder of how essential proactive strategies are in preventing the spread of communicable diseases and supporting affected communities. Join us at the 3rd International Conference on Preventive Medicine and Public Health on 19-20 June 2025 in Colombo, Sri Lanka, as we come together to explore comprehensive approaches for tackling global health issues. Through collaboration and innovation, we can build a future where prevention takes priority.

Choosing voluntary medical male circumcision is a proactive step towards a healthier future. It significantly reduces the risk of HIV and other infections, promoting overall well-being. By making this choice, you’re not only protecting yourself but also contributing to the health of your community. Let’s prioritize our health and make informed decisions for a better tomorrow. 🌟💪 #HealthFirst #StayProtected #WellnessJourney

Health comes first & everything else falls into place, as we prioritize it together, one step at a time & staying consistent! For people living with HIV, & other diseases, 'without good health', true, we can't meet any other goal. 'The summit of the Future' is another awakening call to empower communities with people-centered solutions to current health & social emergencies. #HealthMatters #HealthIsKey #SummitOfTheFuture Solange Baptiste Simon Hind M A Hassan Abdelgalil Peter Owusu Preko

This #WorldDrugDay, we demand human rights-based policies that prioritize harm reduction and support for people who use drugs, rather than punitive measures. This approach treats people with dignity, and offers opportunities to connect them with health services and care for HIV, HCV and more. Unfortunately, harm reduction remains underfunded and inaccessible for too many people around the world, as this report from our allies at Harm Reduction International makes clear: https://lnkd.in/eCUStYdn #SupportDontPunish

On WORLD AIDS DAY, we stand together in unity to acknowledge the ongoing challenges of the HIV/AIDS pandemic, particularly in South Africa, where it continues to impact countless lives. . Today, we are reminded that the health of one is the health of all, and as active citizens, we each play a vital role in supporting the well-being of our communities. It’s not just about fighting the disease; it’s about lifting each other up, showing compassion, and advocating for better healthcare, education, and support systems. . Let’s continue to create a society where no one is left behind, where every individual has the chance to thrive, and where our collective strength is the key to overcoming any challenge. Together, we can make a difference. . #WorldAIDSDay #ActiveCitizenship #HealthOfAll #Empowervate #TogetherWeRise #FightForEquality #EndTheStigma #CommunityStrength

For over two decades, the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has been a global leader in saving lives and strengthening health systems. Through bipartisan leadership, PEPFAR has: ✅ Provided lifesaving treatment to over 20 million people ✅ Prevented millions of babies from being born with HIV ✅ Built resilience in over 50 countries to combat health crises The NAE has long supported the work of PEPFAR, and we believe that both public and private investment in life-saving assistance is required. With its reauthorization deadline approaching in March, now is a good time to urge Congress to support PEPFAR. We have a letter ready to go: https://lght.ly/j50nn3a #PEPFAR #GlobalHealth

On #WorldAIDSDay, we are reminded of the critical role #safe, #sufficient, and well-#screened blood plays in combating the #HIVAIDS epidemic. Access to safe blood saves lives, particularly for people living with HIV who often require #bloodtransfusions to manage health complications. According to WHO, an estimated 39.9 million people globally were living with HIV in 2023. Africa bears the greatest burden, with 25.6 million individuals affected—20.8 million in eastern and southern Africa and 4.8 million in western and central Africa. At CoBA, we advocate for robust blood safety policies and equitable access to blood services across Africa. Together, we can ensure that no life is lost due to unsafe or insufficient blood supplies. #WorldAIDSDay #BloodSafety #HealthEquity #CoBA

Sharing information about PrEP (Pre-exposure prophylaxis) with others can empower them to make proactive choices about their health. PrEP is highly effective at preventing HIV when taken as prescribed and can help reduce the risk of transmission. Let's work together to create a healthier and empowered community! #PrEP #HIVPrevention GET PrEP: https://buff.ly/3v01vXK
