It's been nearly two decades since the first AIDS case was discovered and health leaders today, World AIDS Day, make a new commitment to carry on the fight against the disease, with a new theme ''AIDS: Men Make a Difference.''
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), men play a major role in the prevention of HIV and AIDS. Their participation in the AIDS campaign not only indicates a stronger possibility that the trend will be reversed.
"It is crucial not to isolate men as the origin of the problem but to involve them in search of a solution," Dr. Shigeru Omi, WHO regional director for the Western Pacific, pointed out.
Omi cited past experiences in some countries of the world which illustrate that men's behavior has changed after actively joining in the fight against AIDS. - MB, Dec 2000
