The National Youth Council of Dominica in collaboration with the National HIV/AIDS Response Unit, The Dominica Planned Parenthood, The Big Brothers of Scotts head and Soufriere, and the Grand Bay Youth Center Club will be engaging in an HIV/AIDS drive-through on Saturday 26th February, 2011.
This activity is expected to continue to raise the awareness of the general public, especially the youths and others who are most at risk, about the disease of HIV/AIDS, its methods of transmission, preventative measures, risk factors and testing.
The drive is scheduled for Saturday 26th February, 2010 from 2:00 p.m. and will commence in the village of Scotts Head, and continue through Soufriere, Bellevue, Pichelin, Maranatha Square, Grand Bay, Tete Morne, Dubique, Stowe, Bagatelle, Fond St.Jean and Petite Savanne) and is expected to climax at Delices.
We are seeking the assistance of the general public on this venture as we continue to educate and assist the nation’s youth, so that they will be better equipped to take decisions to improve their lives.
Let us all work together for the development of the youth of south.
it dont look like dominicans like to talk about aids but people it is real onces u having sex u can get it so stop doing like it is not real put in u comment about it and be open so the young people can be help in going to take their test please i need to see more comment than that were a u mouth of the south come on
please HiV|AiDs is everybody bussiness, because you never know when is your turn.
that is why you have to know the fact about HIV,it is not are disease it is a Virurs.
you can only know it you have the virurs by doing your HiV test.
My brother has HIV is a disease that causes severe pain that is why taking Oxycodone and Hydrocodone but as it bothers him take prescription searched online and found Findyourdrug which seems an interesting page to friends recommend.
Great initiative!!!
I agree, the entire country needs it but I can speak for Grand Bay….serious catastrophe waiting to happen
I really think that this is a commendable effort by the National Youth Council. As a youth i am very passionate about anything that fosters the education on the topic of HIV/AIDS. We live in a world where the man next door, the baby in the cradle or even our very own dad’s and mom’s could have it( the very ppl we trust and love) . Reality is that there’s no face with AIDS so please let’s not discriminate, just educate and practise safe sex. I strongly concur with “negre marwon” that the danger of the disease is still real and that WE MUST be vigilant towards controlling and ending this dreadful disease.
MY FELLOW YOUTHS LET’S JOIN THE FIGHT.
i will say true to this
very well said DCC
great initiative.. education young minds definitely paves the way to our future!
Positive vibration youth to youth education
May I ask, how comes there are condoms, education and the likes to combat HIV/AIDS however we continue to see an increase in HIV/AIDS here?
once again bravo to the south
This is a very good thing for the youth of the Island.I hopeAll youth in the area will particpate in this activity.Julian you’re doing a great job in the south and south west district.The Youth Division is like a savour for the youth of Dominica.Keep on the good work!
Definitely worth the effort in those areas. Maybe other communities in Dominica need it too, but I am from Grand Bay and I know for a fact that there exists young men, some of them looking quite normal who are deliberately spreading AIDS to innocent or should I say, stupid (in some cases) young girls. Those young girls go on denying the fact, and it is spreading like wildfire in the community. If one has it, I am afraid several others do. Lets hope they get tested, and get the care they need.
so true
then they should use their condoms, do you have facts? how can you say it is spreading like wildfire? where is your proof
I cant cay I have scientific proof, but take my word for it, I know what I talking about. I know many of them who have been tested and know that they have it. I cannot say more.
lets not call them stupied, but to me if u know tell those young girl, tell them or tell their family.
let u talk about aids it is real we want to no more about it now is the time to comment
i think testing is a good thing so u can no where u stand i no of are man that has it for 13yrs now and he dont look so if u no u can take care of u self
13yrs wow i know they say symptons that showing around 5-10yrs
well he takes good care of his self and tell people about it he talks about it for him life goes on when u keep it to u self that is the killer his not run ing giveing it to people his telling dont try to get it out there so people be open if u have it talk about it u dont have to say who u are bout talk u mine that is how u will get help if he dont tell u he has it by looking at him u will never no be cause he is true to his self we all love him we make him feel like every one no bad feeling
A good collaborative effort by the various groups.There seems to be a lack of interest
in IV/AIDS issue in Dominica. The danger of the disease is still real.We should be
vigilant towards controlling and ending this dreadful disease
