HIV will not suddenly disappear: Chairman

This year's national theme, set by the PNG National AIDS Secretariat, is Hands up for #HIV prevention - count me in.

"People need to know that HIV will not suddenly disappear and that's the essence of the march,” said the WAD deputy chairman, Robert Eri.

"We all need to wake up to the fact that everybody has to be responsible, everybody's got to take ownership, everybody has to stand and be counted.

"Many think AIDS is under control but we need to continue on the awareness."
