We can’t afford to be silent

HIV/Aids is the most common topic we are likely to see when we read newspapers, to hear when we turn on the radio and television sets.

We have on several occasions been taught about the dangers and prevention methods of the deadly disease. To many, it has become the song of the day.

This however is by no means a guarantee that people have heard enough. Even if it were true, the fact that the disease is still claiming the lives of many, and utterly incurable, we can not sit back and relax.

Countries like Uganda have managed to successfully reduce the catching and spreading of the disease because of their tireless effort to sensitise the public.

As Rwandans, we too can not keep silent until our loved ones cease being killed by the intolerant syndrome.
