#RUN TO END AIDS

World AIDS Day is held on the 1st December each year and is an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, show their support for people living with HIV and to commemorate people who have died. World AIDS Day is important because it reminds the public and Government that HIV has not gone away – there is still a vital need to raise money, increase awareness, fight prejudice and improve education. Various events across the world are organized to support the cause like Red Run on World AIDS Day, Rock the track for HIV /AIDS awareness and prevention, Run Towards Zero – Zero new HIV infections, Zero discrimination, Zero AIDS related deaths. Taking the similar interest forward Punjab Institute of Medical Sciences is organizing an event – #RUN TO END AIDS to mark World AIDS day.
