El Salvador Recognizes World AIDS Day

“According to official statistics, 15,000 Salvadorans have tested positive for HIV. However, Otoniel Ramirez from the survivor advocacy group Atlacatl Association, points to UN data revealing that 50% of HIV positive cases go undetected in El Salvador . “If this is true,”
Ramirez told Diario Co-Latino, “then we have about 30,000 HIV carriers in our country. The goal is to prevent more infections and to ensure that HIV people aren’t discriminated against by society, the government or by business.””
