World AIDS Day 2022: World AIDS Day is observed every year on December 1, to raise awareness about the deadly epidemic.

World AIDS Day is celebrated every year on December 1 to spread awareness about HIV infection. It was initiated by the WHO in August 1987. The theme of <a href="https://www.editorji.com/lifestyle-news/health/world-aids-day-2022-know-theme-history-and-significance-of-the-day-1669621888427">World AIDS Day 2022</a> is 'Equalize.'
HIV remains a major public health issue that affects millions of people worldwide. According to a <a href="https://www.unicef.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">UNICEF </a>report, more than 40 million people have lost their lives due to HIV AIDS. In 2021, about 6.5 lakh people died due to HIV infection while around 15 million people got infected with the same.&nbsp;
Talking about its treatment, at present, there is no cure other than anti-retroviral treatment (ART). However, with increasing access to effective HIV prevention, diagnosis and treatment, it has become a manageable chronic health condition, enabling people to live a long and healthy life.

Good News! Researchers develop new vaccine to cure AIDS

A team of researchers from Tel Aviv University have created a new vaccine that can treat HIV-AIDS via gene editing, which might be a game changer in medical science.&nbsp;
The Human Immunodeficiency Virus or HIV assaults the immune system and, if left untreated, can result in Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome AIDS.
Pertinently, there is no cure for HIV/AIDS as of now. However, scientists claim to have found a novel therapy that may destroy the virus with a single injection, perhaps resulting in a significant improvement in the patients' condition. Published in the journal Nature, the study was conducted in collaboration with additional researchers from Israel and the US.
As per the findings, the team achieved preliminary success in neutralising the virus by manipulating type B white blood cells that trigger the immune system to make HIV-neutralising antibodies.&nbsp;

World AIDS Day 2021: Know the history and significance of the day

World AIDS Day 2021: 'End Inequalities. End AIDS'

World AIDS Day is observed on December 1 to raise awareness and to unite people worldwide in the fight against the global health issue.

World AIDS Day is celebrated on December 1, every year. This day is observed to show support for people living with HIV and to commemorate the people who have lost&nbsp;their lives to&nbsp;AIDS.
The theme of World AIDS Day 2021 is 'End inequalities. End AIDS.' The aim is to focus on people who are currently not receiving essential HIV services. World AIDS Day was first observed in 1987 as the first-ever global health day by James W Bunn and Thomas Netter.&nbsp;
HIV remains a major public health issue that affects millions of people worldwide. Although the world has made significant progress in recent decades, important global targets for 2020 were not met due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
According to WHO, there are approximately 38 million people who are living with HIV and it has killed more than 35 million people since 1988.
There is no cure for the&nbsp;HIV infection. However, with increasing access to effective HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care, it has become a manageable chronic health condition, enabling people to live a long and healthy life.
As per WHO, globally 73% of people living with HIV received lifelong antiretroviral therapy (ART) in 2020 but more efforts are needed to scale up treatment, particularly for children and adolescents.

In a nation where at least 50 per cent of the population is under the age of 24 and over 65 per cent is less than 35 years old, the market for condoms has only witnessed a sluggish 2 per cent growth in the past 6 years.&nbsp;
In general, condom use in India remains extremely low at 5.6 per cent of the population and there seems to be no clear explanation behind this abysmal adoption. A first-of-its-kind Consumer Condom Psychology report&nbsp;from India titled 'Condomology'&nbsp;has been launched in&nbsp;an effort to offer&nbsp;some clues into&nbsp;the&nbsp;attitudes and misconceptions about condom use in India.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The report finds that despite the massive growth of dating apps&nbsp;like Tinder and Bumble, consumption patterns haven't moved as quickly as the number of swipes.&nbsp;The survey found that&nbsp;one of the reasons behind low adoption&nbsp;is&nbsp;the lack of awareness about sexually transmitted diseases other than AIDS/HIV&nbsp;and a&nbsp;misconception amongst the youth that they would not be impacted by the disease.&nbsp;Condoms are largely used only for preventing pregnancy.&nbsp;&nbsp;
For first-time or young users, other reasons include appearing too promiscuous if found carrying one; men believing that protection will reduce pleasure;&nbsp;fear of killing the&nbsp;flow&nbsp;of the moment; fear of being judged by their partner for fumbling&nbsp;during use; and in women, there is also a lack of confidence in asking their partners to use one as well as a belief that it is a&nbsp;man&rsquo;s responsibility to carry one.&nbsp;
In fact, procurement of protection seems to be a major hurdle for all. Where&nbsp;one can buy condoms from a vending machine abroad, in India,&nbsp;chemists control 81&nbsp;per cent&nbsp;of the value of the market for condom sales.&nbsp;This&nbsp;mandates&nbsp;one-on-one&nbsp;interaction&nbsp;in a culture where social stigma just adds to the discomfort.&nbsp;There is a lack of awareness about what condom to buy as the already embarrassed buyer is&nbsp;at the mercy of the pharmacist&nbsp;to&nbsp;quietly purchase whatever product variant is slipped in his&nbsp;(or occasionally her)&nbsp;shopping bag.&nbsp;
Many campaigns&nbsp;from the government, non-profits and private companies have tried to&nbsp;break the culture of silence that surrounds sexuality and make it commonplace.&nbsp;And while efforts made in the past have been commendable, it still seems like there still remains too much ground to cover.

Why condom use is so low in high population India. Condomology report digs deep

India &ndash; a nation in its prime&nbsp; 50% population under 24&nbsp; 65% population under 35
India &ndash; a nation in its prime&nbsp; Condom market:&nbsp;est. ₹1,521&nbsp;cr&nbsp;in 2019-20&nbsp; Growth of just 2% in the last 6 years Condom use: 5.6% of the total population
Growth of dating apps doesn't match condom use numbers
Why Indians don't want to use protection? Lack of awareness about STD/STIs Belief that they will not be impacted Condoms only used for pregnancy prevention&nbsp;
Reasons behind low condom adoption Don't want to look promiscuous carrying one Men believe condoms reduce pleasure Fear of spoiling the 'moment' Fear of fumbling during first use&nbsp;
Roadblocks for women Fear of appearing too 'sexually active' Lack of confidence to question their partner Belief that the onus of buying lies with men
The problem of procurement Chemists control 81% of sales volume Mandatory one-on-one interaction Social stigma cause discomfort, awkwardness
The problem of procurement No awareness of what to buy At the mercy of the pharmacist Forced to buy whatever is slipped into the bag

The first person known to have been cured of HIV infection, Timothy Ray Brown, is now suffering from a relapse of cancer, he told the Associated Press in an interview. Brown, who is also called the 'Berlin patient' because of the place he was at the time of treatment, was diagnosed with leukemia in 2006 and HIV in the 1990s. After a transplant from a donor with a rare resistance to the AIDS virus, it was believed that his leukemia and HIV infection was cured. The 54 year old still shows no signs of HIV&nbsp;but his cancer returned in 2019. He said in an interview that it has spread widely and he is receiving hospice care in California. Speaking of his transplant he added he was glad he got it done as it opened new doors for scientists to find a cure.
