Abstract:
With the majority of the world’s population being HIV-negative, the focus has rightly been put on a ‘social vaccine’ that is, creating sufficient levels of awareness to ensure that the epidemic does not become generalised. Such awareness, however, can only be achieved through simultaneous and sustained actions to strengthen the continuum of care, support and treatment with prevention of HIV as an integral part of the efforts. The availability of useful and interactive websites can go a long way in strengthening and streamlining appropriate HIV prevention information for diverse segments of society.
