Note - This may seem a joke but is not to those who suffer from this disease.
India has had a sharp decrease in the estimated number of HIV infections, from 2005 reports saying 5.2 million to 5.7 million had HIV to 2007 UNAids reports saying that number is now between 2 million and 3 million.
This brings the HIV prevalence rate in India below many western nations including the US, Canada, Italy, France, and Spain, at .36 percent.
India's national epidemic is made up of a number of local epidemics, and in some places they occur within the same state. The epidemics vary, from states with mainly heterosexual transmission of HIV (85%), often via interaction with sex workers, to some states where intravenous drug use is the main route of transmission. Both tracking the epidemic and implementing effective programmes poses a serious challenge to the authorities and communities in India. HIV surveillance in India falls under the auspices of the National AIDS Control Organization (NACO). The majority of HIV surveillance data collected by NACO is done through annual unlinked anonymous testing of prenatal clinic (or antenatal clinics) and sexually transmitted infection clinic attendees. Annual reports of HIV surveillance are freely available on NACO's website.
India has a large population and population density, low literacy levels and consequently low levels of awareness, and HIV/AIDS is one of the most challenging public health problems ever faced by the country. A recent study published in the British medical journal "The Lancet" in (2006) reported an approximately 30% decline in HIV infections among young women aged 15 to 24 years attending prenatal clinics in selected southern states of India from 2000 to 2004 where the epidemic is thought to be concentrated. The authors cautiously attribute observed declines to increased condom use by men who visit commercial sex workers and cite several pieces of corroborating evidence.
I remember Richard Gere at AIDS awareness campaign kissing Shilpa Shetty , well hmm that was acc to few was because of un parallel culture & was innocent & immature act but those kind of culture itself develops the habit of Unsafe sex.
Most significance development is AIDS is found in province like Andhra Pradesh, reason which I can blame is Unsafe & Immoral Sex.,but at the same there is a rapid progress in AIDS awareness too.
The Best Aids awareness song I ve ever heard
This is an entertaining and educational video in Telugu on Condom usage, to prevent from sexually transmitted infections and HIV, from Nrityanjali Academy, Secunderabad, Andhra Pradesh, India.
Look at the people participating in the video at the background, they don’t look that happy. Almost seemed as if they’re going to beat up the human condoms any time.
Lyrics for Condom Song - Telugu
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
I am sealed with Lubricant.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
I come in different colours and called by different names.
I am a shield, I can protect you.
Any brand anywhere I can be bought.
Ask for me in a medical shop.
Also available in “MYTHRI CENTRES” and other shops
I protect you against STI’s
I save everyone from HIV/AIDS
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Many men and women have used & discarded (unsatisfied) me
Some men and women say I don’t satisfy desire.
I am good-natured and provide satisfaction
I am for you do not neglect me.
I help in stopping unwanted childbirth
I save you and increase your longevity
I remain with you and see that you remain healthy.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
In your youth you become rash and careless
You think no end of yourself
You desire for sex with multiple partners
For momentary sexual pleasure you go to great lengths
You get easily carried away in search of this happiness
You overlook the possibility of STI’s
Oh! My! Look out, you can get HIV/AIDS
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Avoid disaster, leave aside your fears
Remember me, do not get into trouble
Don’t forget to check the date of manufacture
I am quite delicate take care while wearing
Turn deaf ear to others I am very good
You will remain happy without AIDS
The day you forget me you will find yourself in trouble
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Not only for men condoms are available for women
No need to feel shy use one with a smile
Dear, use me while having in sex
Gay people also need to use me.
Using me each time makes me more safe
Oh! Women take care of your health
Oh! Men take care of your health
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
Never forget me I am Nirodh,
I am the condom friend ever useful to you.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
I am made in different colors with fragrance.
“Gay people also need to use me.” LOL.
