HIV menace

Letter October 05, 2019
About 25% of the people of Pakistan are affected by this virus

TURBAT: HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system and gradually weakens it; it destroys the white blood cells in the body. However, in Pakistan about 25% of the people are affected by this menace. The spread of this disease will be detrimental for the people. The government has failed to provide better treatment for those affected by HIV. I appeal to the authorities concerned to look into the issue as soon as possible.
