Today, UNAIDS, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, held their first Google+ hangout with UNAIDS Executive Director, Michel Sidibé, global ambassador for the Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, Florence Ngobeni, and HIV/AIDS activist and singer Annie Lennox.
With World AIDS Day quickly approaching on Saturday there are many conversations about HIV/AIDS and what needs to be done in order to completely create an AIDS-free generation. You can watch the hangout below. It lasts roughly 30 minutes.
Some key tweets from our Twitter handle and others at the #ZeroHIV hashtag are below.
