Home » Society » Five-year plan against HIV/AIDS
Thailand wants to reduce the number of new HIV/Aids infections in 5 years from the current number of 10.097 per year to 3.000.
This ambitious goal has been laid down in a strategic plan drawn up by the National HIV/AIDS Committee. The plan is in line with the UN's 'Getting to Zero' campaign, which aims to end new HIV/AIDS infections, discrimination and HIV/AIDS-related deaths.
Thailand has 481.770 people with HIV/AIDS; 283.612 individuals receive anti-retroviral therapy through three national health insurance schemes. While Thailand has received international acclaim for its success in reducing the number of new cases, discrimination remains a problem, said Petchsri Sirinirand, director of the National AIDS Management Centre.
Foreign workers and drug users who inject intravenously are deprived of treatment and counselling. 'They are still stigmatized as illegals, criminals or drug addicts.'
Yesterday was World AIDS Day.
In any case, the young people receive sex education about condom use at primary school, so that cannot be the reason.
If only that were true, Hans! Read the story “Candle in the rain” again and agree with me that there is a lack of information in primary and secondary schools. Early unwanted pregnancies and HIV/Aids are the result!
Well my girlfriend herself told me that they had the greatest fun with the condoms and they blew up like a balloon and the teacher got mad.
In the Netherlands, children receive good information, which is something different from the practice, many of those educated children do not use condoms anyway.
The effect of information campaigns is generally overestimated. I don't know if the figures below are still valid, but they were enlightening at the time.
It doesn't help, says Durex about campaigns with the motto Pretty safe. Already
For years, the growth rate of condom use has fluctuated unshakably low. The
largest group of regular users are married couples (Rotterdams Dagblad,
August 10, 1995).
Dutch students have not used condoms in the past five years
going to use. In contrast, the number of different partners with whom
they went to bed, but rose sharply (Rotterdams Dagblad,
September 21, 1995).
