TNI Bureau: HIV/AIDS, which is world’s most serious health challenge for both the developed and third world countries, the pandemic will be entirely eradicated, claims a United Nations report. Sounds like AIDS will no longer spread scare among people.
According to UN report, the eradication of AIDS is possible if the patients will take prescribed drugs that can treat and prevent the disease, which said to be incurable.
UNAIDS in its annual report noted, “Success in fighting the disease in the past decade has allowed the foundation to be laid for the eventual end of AIDS by cutting the death toll and helping stabilise the number of people infected in the pandemic.
