 HIV Vaccine Awareness Day
On May 18th what will you be doing? Why not wear a red AIDS ribbon upside
down as a symbol for VICTORY—victory for all the hard work and
advances that have been made in the last 21 years of HIV
vaccine research. The upside down red ribbon also forms a
V for VACCINES, the vision of
a world without HIV and AIDS.
May 18th is HIV Vaccine Awareness
Day and communities around the world are coming together
to provide a platform from which to speak, support,
and educate one another about the value of HIV vaccine research,
the commitment to find vaccines that work, and the advances
that are being
made in the field of HIV vaccine research. Currently, there
is no vaccine for HIV, and HIV Vaccine Awareness Day provides
us with an opportunity
to stand together against the AIDS pandemic, by acknowledging
and supporting the people and the progress we have made,
so far, in the work for a vaccine
to prevent HIV infection.
