The Parliament looks forward to a dignified life for all our fellow human beings suffering from AIDS, relieving them as much as possible from the feeling of suffering and eliminating any kind of discrimination they may experience.
Speaker of the House of Representatives Anita Demetriou, in her report to the plenary session on World AIDS Day, said that yesterday, December 1, the building of the House of Representatives was illuminated in red to mark World AIDS Day, which was established in the late 1980s by the World Health Organization.
As mentioned, Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is an infectious disease caused by the HIV virus, which survives in the environment outside the human body for a minimum of time and is transmitted through blood, unprotected sexual intercourse, sharing a syringe, or from mother to newborn.
He noted that information and awareness about AIDS is essential for the acceptance of HIV positive people and their smooth coexistence in society.
"As Parliament we look forward to a dignified life for all our fellow human beings suffering from AIDS, relieving them as much as possible from the feeling of pain and eliminating any kind of discrimination they may experience. We also support every effort made by the medical community to find a preventive vaccine and an effective cure for the disease."
