Today, we're talking about #crypto.
Cryptococcal meningitis is one of the main killers of people living with HIV, and is responsible for 180,000 annual deaths.
Despite being treatable, this disease is an outsider, little known and not taken seriously enough. ⬇

1/1 On this #WorldAIDSDay
#DidYouKnow: An opportunistic infection called cryptococcal meningitis annually kills more people living with #HIV than any other cause,except TB.
It is responsible for an est 180 000 deaths/yr of people under 40 years living in sub-Saharan Africa.

Today is #WorldAIDSDay!
You will NOT get #HIV from:
✅ standing by your friend
✅ drinking tea together
✅ hugging
✅ shaking hands
✅ showing that you care
This is how you can reduce your risk of getting it
