Tomorrow is World AIDS Day, Dec 1st, it is held each year and is an opportunity for people worldwide to unite in the fight against HIV, show their support for people living with HIV and to commemorate people who have died. World AIDS Day was the first ever global health day and the first one was held in 1988.
Around 100,000 are currently living with HIV in the UK and globally an estimated 34 million people have HIV. More than 35 million people have died from the virus. In the UK over half of all people living with HIV are aged between 30 and 49, but there are significant numbers both of young people and older people now living with HIV.
