HIV/AIDS awareness

Virus prevention knowledge

HIV/AIDS awareness is public knowledge and education about Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome—how the disease spreads, how to prevent transmission, and how to support those affected.

The phrase often appears in contexts of public health campaigns, fundraising, and commemorative events: December 1st is World AIDS Day, dedicated to HIV/AIDS awareness.
