LAHORE:Health Minister Khawaja Salman Rafique has said in his message on World AIDS Day that the rate of AIDS is increasing in Pakistan. We all have to make efforts for prevention. In his message, Khawaja Salman said, ‘Our main goal is to make AIDS-affected people productive citizens of the society through treatment and guidance.’

AIDS patients deserve guidance and our attention, not hatred. Ending inequality in access to AIDS prevention, testing and treatment has become very important. We appreciate the services of communities active in the eradication and treatment of AIDS, the minister said.
