Nearly 500 new HIV-Aids cases recorded in the first quarter of this year
Manila: The Philippines might not be able to comply with the call of the United Nations to reduce the number of HIV and Aids cases in the country, officials said on Thursday.
The call was for the number of cases to be reduced to less than one per cent of the country's general population in 2015, due to the number of cases rising by 25 per cent, senior officials and non-government leaders said.
"This could happen because the government has been remiss in undertaking a massive information campaign to stop the spread of HIV-Aids. It should have been done five years ago to make the Philippines achieve the United Nations Millennium Development Goal (MDG) target that HIV-Aids cases should be less than one per cent of a country's population," said youth commissioner Percival Cendana on the eve of the observance of the International Aids Candlelight Memorial (IACM) at Manila's Bonifacio Park on May 16.
