Short Movie: THE U-TURN OF MY CONFIDENCE
The huge progress made in the world against HIV/AIDS as people were put on AIDS treatment does not mean “People are no longer becoming infected”! If in one hand AIDS treatment is giving access to long life, the positive response to this treatment may also contribute to HIV new infection when infected people find themselves healthy and turn to their previous behavior.

This become more effective in our society since HIV/AIDS treatment his responding positively and gives long life to infected people. Depending on how you look at it, the new data on the HIV/AIDS epidemic can tell two very different stories. On the one hand, the world has made huge progress against HIV/AIDS. For example, last year alone, more people were put on AIDS treatment than ever before. On the other hand, there are still many people becoming infected.
