Shri Venkateshwara University hosted an AIDS awareness week to educate the masses about the spread of AIDS and its prevention.
Shri Venkateshwara University/Institute ceremonially concluded AIDS Awareness Week 2024 by organizing street plays, poster making competition, debate, red ribbon awareness rally & a seminar about the dreaded disease.
The 5 day long AIDS awareness week 2024 dwelled upon prevention & how to protect oneself from contacting the AIDS virus. We hosted AIDS awareness week to mark World AIDS Day on December the 1st.
The Community Medicine department of Venkateshwara Institute of Medical Sciences (VIMS) organized the AIDS awareness week to prevent AIDS.
On this occasion, we hosted a seminar wherein Dr Kamlesh Lal Chandwani was the Chief Guest. Dr Chandwani is Deputy Country Head of John Hopkins University NGO.
The Venkateshwara Group Founder President Dr Sudhir Giri, former WHO & UNICEF senior officer Dr Kamlesh Chandwani & the Pro Chancellor Dr Rajeev Tyagi inaugurated the event by lighting a lamp to Goddess Saraswati & flagged off the awareness rally.
The VC Dr Krishna Kant Dave & the Head of the Community Medicine Department Dr BN Singh joined them to conclude the AIDS Awareness Week function.
In his address, Dr Chandwani asserted by implementing the National AIDS Control Program (NACP), any HIV patient can avail free of the cost checkup & treatment for the disease.
There is no effective treatment or vaccine for AIDS, making it more lethal than cancer, hepatitis & liver psoriasis.
But the Government of India has made the treatment free of cost for the patient through the National AIDS Control Organization (NACO).
Through awareness programs, NACO plays a pivotal role in preventing the spread of AIDS.
Because of the concerted efforts of NACO, there has been a 70 percent drop in the mortality rate of AIDS patients. The best way to prevent AIDS is by spreading awareness about it.
The Venkateshwara Group Founder President, Dr Sudhir Giri, reiterated AIDS is a national curse. We should stop AIDS by making the masses aware through public awareness programs. Let’s pledge to stop the spread of AIDS.
The Pro Chancellor Dr Rajeev Tyagi announced the Venkateshwara Group will run an all year round campaign with educational, health & voluntary organizations to prevent the spread of AIDS.
Moreover, the students organized an AIDS awareness rally and submitted a memorandum to the SDM for the President of India.
