Did you know that today is World AIDS Day?
The Obama Administration's strategy to combat HIV/AIDS was released last year (2011). Reduction of new infections, increase in access to healthcare, reduction in health disparities, and achievement of a more coordinated national response to HIV/AIDS are among the main goals. To do this, the Obama Administration is advancing education about HIV/AIDS. The focus is on African-Americans, Latinos, and gay men. Come 2014, The Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare) has been expanded to include HIV-testing and will ensure healthcare coverage to all Americans, including those living with HIV/AIDS.
I love that President Obama issued a presidential proclamation for World AIDS Day; CLICK HERE to read President Obama's Proclamation.
Thanks for stopping by!
