🌏 World AIDS Day 2023: Breaking Barriers in Blood Donation 🩸 Today, on World AIDS Day, I am excited to present my latest article, "Expanding MSM Blood Donor Inclusion in Australia Through Individualised Risk-based Assessments and Gender-neutral Questionnaires." In this article, I explore the potential for individualised risk-based assessments and gender-neutral questionnaires to redefine the eligibility criteria for blood donation, particularly for Men who have Sex with Men (MSM). It is a call to action for more inclusive and equitable blood donation policies in Australia, to ensure that every safe donor has the opportunity to contribute to the nation's blood supply. I invite you to read the full article. Your thoughts and feedback are invaluable, and I encourage you to join the conversation. Let's use this World AIDS Day to not only raise awareness but also to push for positive changes to Australia's inequitable blood donation policies. By challenging outdated norms, we pave the way for a more inclusive and safer blood donation system. Together, let's make strides towards a future where everyone can contribute to saving lives, irrespective of gender or sexual orientation.

We’ve made extraordinary global progress against AIDS. But a recent UNICEF report is raising alarms that these hard-fought advances are grinding to a halt–and innocent children and adolescents are at risk. We know that leadership in the AIDS fight matters. Thanks to the tireless work of activists, the selflessness of community health workers, the ingenuity of the private sector, and the generosity of governments and philanthropists, we now have more life-saving resources than ever before. To create an AIDS-free generation, our leaders must get those tools to those who need them most.

Founder & President of Jaybird Communications - PR & marketing strategist focused on startups, B2B, and music ventures
"A Day Without Art" was the precursor to World AIDS Remembrance Day, and started on December 1, 1989. I was in college and the co-editor of the Arts section of the Tufts Daily, and me and the other co-editor really wanted to do a blank page - going along with the statement of how disproportionally AIDS had struck the artistic community, and of course, specifically gay men. Our EIC would not let us do it, and had us run information about the day. The Boston Phoenix, the weekly newspaper, was available for free on campus, and their issue had a blank page for the arts section. So us Arts Editors decided to cover his desk with those pages in protest. While there are better ways to control HIV and AIDS better now, there still is no cure. According to WHO, 40.4 million people have died from HIV since it was declared an epidemic, and 39 million people are reported to be living with the illness now. In comparison, almost 7 million people have died of COVID. Like COVID, AIDS has no bias by race, gender, age, or sexual orientation - yet, because it was perceived as the "gay disease," it is possible that advances in treatment and more compassionate care could have happened if the ill had not been so marginalized. There are 50,000 squares and more than twice as many names incorporated into the AIDS Memorial Quilt, which began in 1985 to make sure the lives of so many of the first people taken by this illness were not forgotten. This link provides an interactive view of the entire quilt: https://lnkd.in/e2TM-Qci #WorldAIDSDay National AIDS Memorial #worldwitoutAIDS

35th World AIDS Day Today marks the 35th World AIDS Day, reflecting on decades of unfinished business in the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Though immense progress made, 1.3 million new infections and 630,000 deaths globally in 2022 prove critical work remains to eradicate AIDS. On this historic milestone, we mourn vibrant lives muted too soon while rallying hope for an AIDS-free future. Marginalized groups remain most vulnerable as discrimination persists restricting healthcare access and support systems. Without judgment-free testing and treatment, infections and mortality continue unchecked among LGBTQ+ folks, minorities, lower socioeconomic communities and more. Collective action can break these cycles of systemic injustice crippling public health. Here are 3 steps for people and institutions seeking progress: ✅ Fund grassroots community health campaigns ✅ Volunteer at organizations serving key populations ✅ Call policymakers demanding increased support After 35 years, ending AIDS requires empowering marginalized groups. We all play a role through compassion and advocacy to lift stigma, reform biased systems and expand access. Progress happens when enough of us stand up.

This World AIDS Day, we pause to remember and honor the lives of those we have lost to the AIDS epidemic. Each name, each story, is a poignant reminder of the enduring impact of this global challenge. We reflect on the courage and resilience shown in the face of adversity and remember the vibrant lives that have illuminated our communities. At the same time, we celebrate the survivors, the warriors who continue to defy odds every day. Their strength and perseverance inspire us to keep fighting, to keep hoping. Today is not just about looking back at what we've lost, but also about acknowledging the progress we've made and the journey ahead. Let's reaffirm our commitment to supporting those living with HIV/AIDS, to educating our communities, to advocating for access to care and treatment, and to continuing the fight against stigma and discrimination. Together, we honor the past, empower the present, and forge a future where every person's dignity and health are upheld. We stand in solidarity with those affected, remembering the past, celebrating the present, and hopeful for a future free from AIDS. Let's carry this spirit forward, not just today, but every day.

December 1 is #WorldAIDSDay and the start of Indigenous AIDS Awareness Week. It’s a time to ask: what is HIV, how is it spread, how can it be prevented and how can it be treated? It’s also a time to remember those who have struggled against HIV and died of AIDs-related illnesses. More importantly, it’s time to start the conversation on how we can reduce the HIV/AIDs-related stigma and discrimination, and how we can support and care for those living with this disease within our communities. For more information about #WorldAIDSDay and #IAAW, check out CATIE.ca/world-aids-day.
CATIE has a dedicated web page to raise awareness and to help you prepare for World AIDS Day on December 1, which is also the start of Indigenous AIDS Awareness Week, December 1 to 7. Visit CATIE's #WorldAIDSDay webpage to learn more. 👀⤵️ https://lnkd.in/d7g-dzvk
