"Power in relationships is skewed towards men, therefore the success of the fight against the spread of HIV depends on their involvement" Katiikiro @cpmayiga #KabakaRun2020 @unwomenuganda @_RHSP @MildmayUganda @BugandaOfficial @UNDPUganda @MajesticBrands

Amb. William as he ends urges that the fight to #EndHIVUg is no won yet - "1,000 new infections per day and over 5pp deaths every week remind us of the work we to do." #WorldAIDSDay

Our choir performing at the #FreeToShineUG Campaign currently happening at Kawempe Hospital. The campaign, an initiative by First Lady @JanetMuseveni seeks to eliminate mother-to-child-transmission of HIV, keeping mother and their babies in care. #EndHIVUg @RMalango2015

Experts are warning of an #HIV Time Bomb - "Complacency is setting in because people are thinking that there is medicine for HIV; Parents mostly think of school fees and are not talking to their children about HIV yet social behavior is core to HIV." #EndHIVUG via @newvisionwire
