HIV... You're Fired!


 By Mohammad Shakir

It’s the one phrase that most people don’t want to hear in their daily lives, but one phrase we are trying to say to HIV. We want to stop HIV working to spread and destroy lives.

HIV changes lives in the most abhorrent ways, mentally and physically. It destroys a body’s healthy cells especially ones that fight infections such as white blood cells and antibodies and leads to AIDS.

There are over 33 million people affected by HIV globally. This doesn’t include the number of people such as children who sometimes have to care for their parents who suffer from HIV. 

HIV creates orphans and widows, robs a child of a childhood and takes lives. Together we can work harder to say “you’re fired” to HIV.
