NIGERIA IS SECOND LARGEST CARRIER OF HIV/AIDS IN THE WORLD




I came across this report in ThisDay Newspaper and decided to share it with you.

According to Professor John Idoko, the Director General of the National Agency for the Control of AIDS (NACA), Nigeria is the second largest country with people living with HIV/AIDS in the world. A total of 3.4 million Nigerians are living with this disease.

The DG further disclosed that only 18% of the 170 million Nigerians had been tested for HIV and that more than 40% of HIV positive persons do not know their status.

On further investigation, I discovered that topping the chat is South Africa with 5.6 million people living with the HIV/AIDS disease of a total population of 50 million, while India came a distant 3rd with only 2.4 million of it's total population of 1.27 billion.

This is really alarming. What happens when the 170 million of the population is tested?

Please, fellow Nigerians, there is no known cure for AIDS now and there is no vaccine to prevent the HIV. However, with the foresight, self-discipline and education, HIV/AIDS can be prevented. Let's educate ourselves and our children about HIV, how it is transmitted, and how its transmission can be prevented. This will go a long way in saving lives.

  1. Please google "Robert Gallo". This is the white scientist that "invented" HIV/Aids virus. He won a Nobel price for the invention. Purpose? your guess is as good as mine. To check world population, especially the undesirable races. The knowledge about this man would provide you with immense power and understanding about the white and black relationship. The last time I checked, they were helping Africa to survive the ravage or scourge of HIV/AIDS virus. He figured out that White literate population would read literatures on HiV, unlike the minority population, and therefore would quickly adapt and evade the debilitating health condition. He was right.

    2. Am Angela, thanks to Dr Osaze who cured me of HIV. I contacted HIV on my
      struggle to get a good education for my self. The symptoms were already
      showing in me, due to my incessant failing health. Until a friend saw
      Dr osaze's recommendation online, on how he has helped so many people,
      and we decided to reach him. And he applied his herbal medicine on me,
      and I bounce back to my previous heath status. In case you want to reach
      him for a similar issue you can call him at +2347089275769 or email
      him at drosaze39@gmail.com.
