World AIDS Day, 1 December, serves as an important reminder that we must remain steadfast in our commitment to prevent new HIV infections and provide essential services to all people living with HIV globally. In 2024, we will commemorate the 37th World AIDS Day with the theme, \u201cCollective Action: Sustain and Accelerate HIV Progress.\u201d To read more about this year\u2019s theme please visit the HIV.gov blog<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

HIV. Short for human immunodeficiency virus. Any of various strains of a retrovirus of the genus Lentivirus that cause AIDS by infecting the body’s immune system.<\/span><\/p>\n

Human immunodeficiency virus infection\/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV\/AIDS) is a disease of the human immune system caused by infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). During the initial infection, a person may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness. This is typically followed by a prolonged period without symptoms. As the illness progresses, it interferes more and more with the immune system, making the person much more likely to get infections, including opportunistic infections and tumors that do not usually affect people who have working immune systems.<\/span><\/p>\n

HIV is transmitted primarily via unprotected sexual intercourse (including anal and even oral sex), contaminated blood transfusions, hypodermic needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding. Some bodily fluids, such as saliva and tears, do not transmit HIV. Prevention of HIV infection, primarily through safe sex and needle-exchange programs, is a key strategy to control the spread of the disease. There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy. While antiretroviral treatment reduces the risk of death and complications from the disease, these medications are expensive and may be associated with side effects.<\/span><\/p>\n

With around 30 000 newly diagnosed HIV infections reported each year over the last decade, the HIV epidemic remains a significant public health problem in the 31 countries of the European Union and European Economic Area (EU\/EEA).<\/span><\/p>\n

The rate of newly reported cases of HIV increased by 2% each year among older adults since 2004. Based on data reported to ECDC between 2004 and 2015, 312 501 new HIV diagnoses were reported in younger adults (15 to 49 years of age) in the EU\/EEA, resulting in an average reported incidence of new diagnoses of 11.4 per 100 000 population.<\/span><\/p>\n

During this 12-year period, 54 102 cases were reported among older adults aged over 50 years translating into 2.6 per 100 000 population. The rate of newly reported cases increased by 2% each year among older adults since 2004, when 3 132 diagnoses were notified in this age group. By 2015, around every one in six (17%) of newly diagnosed HIV in Europe were among people aged over 50, accounting for 5076 reported cases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Young women who live in areas with high maternal mortality change their behavior less in response to HIV than young women who live in areas with low maternal mortality.<\/span>
\n Emily Oster<\/span><\/p>\n

Even though it is the case that poverty is linked to AIDS, in the sense that Africa is poor and they have a lot of AIDS, it’s not necessarily the case that improving poverty – at least in the short run, that improving exports and improving development – it’s not necessarily the case that that’s going to lead to a decline in HIV prevalence.<\/span>
\n Emily Oster<\/span><\/p>\n

They don’t actually see the real world, where 95% of the people with HIV are not treated and are dying. And even though we have some blue sky now in our country, the sky could become cloudy again very soon.<\/span>
\n Luc Montagnier<\/span><\/p>\n

For many people with HIV, finding the right doctor is the most important decision they’ll make.<\/span>
\n David Mixner<\/span><\/p>\n

I have a lot of friends who are infected with HIV, and you wanna protect them… To increase the awareness of it and to find a cure for it, the human lives we would save would be a really awesome thing. You just have to involve yourself as much as you can.<\/span>
\n Tara Reid<\/span><\/p>\n

I had been an activist on the issue of HIV, primarily in the African American and Latino communities here in the U.S. for many years. It was horrifying to me how the pandemic was raging right here in this country but no one was talking about it.<\/span>
\n Gloria Reuben<\/span><\/p>\n

I did this role in Life Goes On as an HIV positive character and so emotionally that was the most challenging.<\/span>
\n Chad Lowe<\/span><\/p>\n

We are working with a biotech company, Calypte, which has designed a urine test for the HIV antibody.<\/span>
\n Luc Montagnier<\/span><\/p>\n

I think we should put the same weight now on the co-factors as we have on HIV.<\/span>
\n Luc Montagnier<\/span><\/p>\n

The number of people with HIV receiving Medicare benefits has grown over time, reflecting growth in the size of the of the HIV positive population in the U.S. but also an increased lifespan for people with HIV due to antiretroviral medicines and other treatment advances.<\/span>
\n David Mixner<\/span><\/p>\n

All of my peers died of AIDS, and I have no one to celebrate my past or my journey, or to help me pass down stories to the next generation. We lost an entire generation of storytellers with HIV.<\/span>
\n David Mixner<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s no fun to have HIV even though it’s viewed as a chronic, controllable disease. It means being wedded to the health system.<\/span>
\n Phil Berger<\/span><\/p>\n

Leaders in all spheres who are living with HIV should be encouraged, not coerced, to lead by example and disclose their HIV status.<\/span>
\n Nelson Mandela<\/span><\/p>\n

HIV does not make people dangerous to know, so you can shake their hands and give them a hug: Heaven knows they need it.<\/span>
\n Princess Diana<\/span><\/p>\n

I can’t understand why the front pages of newspapers can cover bird flu and swine flu and everybody is up in arms about that and we still haven’t really woken up to the fact that so many women in sub-Saharan Africa – 60 percent of people in – infected with HIV are women.<\/span>
\n Annie Lennox<\/span><\/p>\n

People with HIV are still stigmatized. The infection rates are going up. People are dying. The political response is appalling. The sadness of it, the waste.<\/span>
\n Elton John<\/span><\/p>\n

The government lied about inventing the HIV virus as a means of genocide against people of color. The government lied.<\/span>
\n Jeremiah Wright<\/span><\/p>\n

The important thing is this Just because I’m doing well doesn’t mean that they’re going to do well if they get HIV. A lot of people have died since I have announced. This disease is not going anywhere.<\/span>
\n Magic Johnson<\/span><\/p>\n

A lot of people in my world – in the acting world – have either lost friends to Aids or live with HIV because its origin in our culture, in New York for instance, was in the gay community.<\/span>
\n Emma Thompson<\/span><\/p>\n

I tell you, it’s funny because the only time I think about HIV is when I have to take my medicine twice a day.<\/span>
\n Magic Johnson<\/span><\/p>\n

The general population still thinks HIV is something that came in the 80s and went away, or that it only affects the gay population or intravenous drug users.<\/span>
\n Annie Lennox<\/span><\/p>\n

People are so involved with immediate care, but at the same time there needs to be investment in educating people as adolescents when they’re still HIV negative.<\/span>
\n Charlize Theron<\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone thought I was going to die like a year later, they didn’t know. So I helped educate sports, and then the world, that a man living with HIV can play basketball. He’s not going to give it to anybody by playing basketball.<\/span>
\n Magic Johnson<\/span><\/p>\n

And the danger is – and it’s happening – is we’re seeing an incredibly big rise amongst young gay people, young heterosexual people as far as catching HIV, which is, you know, in an educated country like this or in Britain, it’s frightening.<\/span>
\n Elton John<\/span><\/p>\n

And there’s no guarantee that if you get HIV and you take these triple therapies, or whatever comes along next, that they’re going to be successful for you.<\/span>
\n Elton John<\/span><\/p>\n

The greatest grand challenge for any scientist is discovering how to prevent the spread of HIV and finding the cure or an effective vaccine for AIDS.<\/span>
\n Philip Emeagwali<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, it is obvious that clinicians in Haiti are faced with different, and, in fact, greater, challenges when attempting to treat complications of HIV disease.<\/span>
\n Paul Farmer<\/span><\/p>\n

I recommend the same therapies for all humans with HIV. There is no reason to believe that physiologic responses to therapy will vary across lines of class, culture, race or nationality.<\/span>
\n Paul Farmer<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, it seems to me that making strategic alliances across national borders in order to treat HIV among the world’s poor is one of the last great hopes of solidarity across a widening divide.<\/span>
\n Paul Farmer<\/span><\/p>\n

One out of every 100 American men is HIV positive. The rate of infection has reached epidemic proportions in 40 developing nations.<\/span>
\n Philip Emeagwali<\/span><\/p>\n

Housing Works is the coolest thrift store in the world, because not only are they the best thrift store – they’re not the most thrifty thrift store – but they have amazing stuff and all of their proceeds go directly to kids, mostly homeless kids, living with AIDS and HIV in New York, in the metropolitan area.<\/span>
\n Ezra Miller<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m part of a team that raises millions of dollars and raises awareness of HIV and AIDS all over the world.<\/span>
\n Linda Evangelista<\/span><\/p>\n

HIV AIDS is a disease with stigma. And we have learned with experience, not just with HIV AIDS but with other diseases, countries for many reasons are sometimes hesitant to admit they have a problem.<\/span>
\n Margaret Chan<\/span><\/p>\n

Being in the design industry, I’ve tended to meet more people who are affected by HIV and AIDS.<\/span>
\n Douglas Wilson<\/span><\/p>\n

HIV infection and AIDS is growing – but so too is public apathy. We have already lost too many friends and colleagues.<\/span>
\n David Geffen<\/span><\/p>\n

I couldn’t care less if the guy I’m guarding has HIV. I’m going to slam him anyway.<\/span>
\n Dennis Rodman<\/span><\/p>\n

Eighty percent of Americans with HIV do not know they are infected.<\/span>
\n Philip Emeagwali<\/span><\/p>\n

When a person tests positive for HIV, it is not a test for the virus itself but for antibodies to the virus, and the test is not able to distinguish between HIV antibodies and a multitude of other antibodies. Many conditions can lead to a false positive result, including flu shots, hepatitis, and pregnancy.<\/span>
\n Nate Mendel<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr. Do-Nothing Obama will say today, ‘Lets think of all the poor dead people’ – or ‘let’s honor all the dead’ instead of fighting for the living. He has been really useless in terms of both HIV and gay issues. He is simply not a leader. He may be president, but he is not a leader.<\/span>
\n Larry Kramer<\/span><\/p>\n

Those who say that climate change doesn’t exist are being understood as the flat-earthers that they are, as the people who deny the link between smoking and cancer, as the people who denied the link between HIV and AIDS.<\/span>
\n Nicholas Stern<\/span><\/p>\n

We see new things all the time. We see new retroviruses out there – which is the category that HIV falls into – and we’re very, very concerned because this is the part of the world where HIV jumped from chimpanzees to humans.<\/span>
\n Nathan Wolfe<\/span><\/p>\n

There exist thousands of Americans who have AIDS-defining diseases but are HIV negative.<\/span>
\n Serge Lang<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, screening for HIV did essentially eliminate the transmission of this virus by transfusions.<\/span>
\n Serge Lang<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, I have formed three major organizations: the National Association of Business Women, the Young Women’s Leaders Network, and the Joyce Banda Foundation. Under the foundation, we have a huge program that targets women to teach them about HIV and other diseases and to give them economic empowerment.<\/span>
\n Joyce Banda<\/span><\/p>\n

People wait in line to see me, saying there’s plenty of living to be done even if you have an HIV diagnosis. People say they are 10- or 15-year survivors and still moving forward.<\/span>
\n Greg Louganis<\/span><\/p>\n

I have full confidence in the ability of Foo Fighters’ audiences to distinguish between questioning HIV and the obvious value of safe-sex practices.<\/span>
\n Nate Mendel<\/span><\/p>\n

The challenges surrounding HIV and AIDS are getting more complex and mature, and we just can’t stick our heads in the sand and say ‘it can’t happen to me.’<\/span>
\n Brande Roderick<\/span><\/p>\n

Reiterating the belief that HIV is the cause of AIDS is an easy thing to do. Understanding the science and politics of the situation is much more complicated and requires study with a critical and open mind.<\/span>
\n Nate Mendel<\/span><\/p>\n

How is AIDS research to progress when the premise of science is questioning but the premise of questioning HIV is considered so dangerous that even venturing into the facts is too great a risk?<\/span>
\n Nate Mendel<\/span><\/p>\n

In South Africa, where HIV-positive children are often shunned, we have an HIV-positive Muppet to teach children to be friendly with children with HIV. But they use local actors. And it’s not always a street. Sometimes it’s ‘Sesame Plaza,’ or ‘Sesame Tree.’<\/span>
