World AIDS Day: Awareness, Support, Care, and Combating Stigma with Trimurti Hospital Latur

Every year, World AIDS Day is observed on December 1 to spread awareness, show solidarity with those living with HIV/AIDS, and combat the stigma surrounding the condition. At Trimurti Hospital, Latur, we stand committed to providing comprehensive healthcare while advocating for a compassionate and informed society.


What is World AIDS Day?


World AIDS Day was established in 1988 as the first-ever global health day. It aims to:

  • Raise awareness about HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment.

  • Support individuals living with HIV/AIDS.

  • Honor those who have lost their lives to the disease.


HIV/AIDS: Myths vs. Facts


Despite advances in medical science, HIV/AIDS remains surrounded by misconceptions. Let’s bust some myths:


  • Myth: HIV spreads through casual contact like handshakes or sharing utensils.


    Fact: HIV spreads only through specific bodily fluids like blood, semen, and breast milk.

  • Myth: An HIV diagnosis is a death sentence.


    Fact: With early diagnosis and treatment, individuals can lead long, healthy lives.

  • Myth: Women with HIV cannot have healthy pregnancies.


    Fact: With proper medical care, women with HIV can give birth to HIV-negative babies
