 1 DECEMBER
WORLD AIDS DAY 2006
The answer is both “yes” and “no.” Yes, Canadians become infected with the virus that
causes AIDS. Every two hours. And no, unfortunately, a lot of Canadians just don’t get it. AIDS isn’t somebody else’s
problem. It affects the people you love, the community you live in, and the economy that supports us all. Lend your support:
become better informed, minimize your risk, talk about AIDS with others, or support your local AIDS service organization.
Every two hours, someone in Canada is infected with HIV. An estimated 58,000 people are living with HIV/AIDS – a
16% increase since 2002. Of these Canadians, 27% do not know they are infected with HIV/AIDS.
The number of people living with HIV/AIDS in Canada continues to rise due to the fact that new infections continue to occur
and HIV/AIDS treatments have improved survival.
