Back to our health calendar news.
This December there were two international health awareness days.

December 1 was World Aids Day

People don't want to talk about HIV or AIDS, but it needs to be talked about.
It's not going away.  Young people need to learn about it.

Here are Nepal's statistics from the National Center for AIDS and STD Control as of Ashad 2072:

The United Nations has an interesting article, along with links, about the need
to educate our adolescents about this and other similar issues.

Make sure your teens are not "in the dark."  Come in for an informational talk with a doctor if you have questions and bring your teens in.  This is too important to dismiss as not needed.



December 3 was the International Day of 
Persons with Disabilities
