AfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> AS Dodoma Region joined the rest of the country to mark the Word Aids Day, Dodoma Regional Administrative Secretary (RAS), Kessy Maduka said his region remains committed to putting up proper strategies that will see infection rate going down.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event held at the famous Nyerere Square grounds, Mr Maduka called for joint efforts to reduce new infections in the region.<\/p>\n

\u201cDodoma is one of the regions with the highest number of youth in the country, we need to ensure that we join hands to protect them because this is the regional workforce,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n

He said that regional authorities were putting every measure in place in the fight against the disease.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a responsibility as Dodoma Region to protect our people as well as ensuring that we don\u2019t discriminate those who have already come out strongly to declare publicly that they have already contracted HIV\/ AIDS,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Each year on 1st December, the world commemorates World AIDS Day.<\/p>\n

People around the world unite to show support for people living with HIV and to remember those who have died from AIDS-related illnesses.<\/p>\n

Each World AIDS Day focuses on a specific theme, and this year\u2019s theme is \u2018Global solidarity, shared responsibility\u2019.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme joins a growing list of challenges that World AIDS Day has alerted people globally. Founded in 1988, World AIDS Day was the first ever international day for global health.<\/p>\n

Every year, United Nations agencies, governments and civil society join together to campaign around specific themes related to HIV.<\/p>\n

Statistics show that youth aged between 15 and 24 contribute to new infections by 40 per cent, thus categorising this group in danger of getting new HIV infections in the country.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event, Dodoma City Council Head of Community Development, Ms Sharifa Nabalang\u2019anya cautioned the youth to take all possible precautionary measures so that they cannot contract the disease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
