HIV/AIDS

• HIV is at pandemic levels, it has killed over 25
  million people since 1981 (when the disease was
  first identified)
• More people die each year from HIV/AIDS than from
  the combined fatalities of cancer, car crashes
  and smoking
• Although HIV/AIDS is readily associated with
  Africa, there are many more countries and regions
  facing crisis levels where the disease is
  concerned. The numbers of people infected with
  the disease are steadily increasing in South
  America, and closer to home in the Asia Pacific
  region, including India, Malaysia, Thailand and
