Statement by the Prime Minister of Canada on World Aids Day
(firmenpresse) - OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwired) -- 12/01/15 -- The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on World AIDS Day:
"World AIDS Day is an opportunity for us to unite with the global community to raise awareness about HIV and AIDS, to stand in solidarity with those living with the virus, and to remember those who have died.
"Almost three decades after the first World AIDS Day was held, we are now at a point where we can envision a future free of this terrible disease.
"We thank the Canadian researchers and doctors who have played such an important role in the medical advancements that have revolutionized the prevention and treatment of HIV, making it possible for many diagnosed with the infection to live full lives.
"We must also honour the dedicated members of our communities who work to prevent HIV/AIDS, reduce stigma and discrimination in its many forms, and help people get the care, treatment, and support they need.
"While unprecedented efforts have yielded impressive results, work continues toward preventing new infections, providing access to treatment for all who suffer around the world, and discovering a cure.
"Today, we reflect on the history of our global efforts against HIV and AIDS, and look forward to a time when future generations will never have to experience the loss, hurt, and isolation of this preventable and treatable condition."
