From Legends & Legacies: Alan Jones shares how, during the AIDS crisis, Brewers Hotel rented rooms for $45/week. But the real story? The intense camaraderie.

Knowable MagazineEarlier this week marked #WorldAIDSDay, a global movement to unite people in the fight against HIV and AIDS.
Due to advances in research and progress in treatment, an infection isnโt the death sentence it once was. And there are other reasons for optimism.

A day late โ World Aids Day was yesterday โ but I was waiting for Kai to add alt text, which he's now done. A day late or not, this still seemed worth sharing.
GMC, TonkGMC, Tonk, marked #WorldAIDSDay with a crucial seminar focused on HIV awareness, prevention, and ART therapy.

The event featured insights from expert guest Dr. Jiya-ul-Haq, Additional Principal Dr. Nidhi Singh, senior faculty, and first-year student Jayant Kuri, emphasizing timely treatment, reducing stigma, and community support.
Mason Loring BlissLet's throw in some little evil to flavour the big evil:.
'For the first time since 1988, the U.S. is not officially commemorating World AIDS Day.'
'The State Department issued a terse statement last week saying, "an awareness day is not a strategy." The result is that on December 1, the United States is not commemorating World AIDS Day. It's the first time the U.S. has not participated since the World Health Organization created this day in 1988 to remember the millions of people who have died of AIDS-related illnesses and recommit to fighting the epidemic that still claims the lives of more than half a million people each year.'
Remember that this administration is killing people by stopping PEPFAR.
