The U.S. government theme for World AIDS Day 2015 on December 1 will be “The Time to Act Is Now,” emphasizing the need to look to the future but demonstrating the urgent need for action today.
In a White House blog post, Douglas M. Brooks, Director of the Office of National AIDS Policy, writes that “There is no better time than World AIDS Day to recommit ourselves to achieving an AIDS-free generation. This year, we will celebrate the tremendous progress we have made together in expanding access to HIV prevention, treatment, and care services, and focus on the potential to achieve sustainable epidemic control and end AIDS as a public health threat.”
