Today’s episode will focus on HIV Awareness
Why do you think we choose this topic? In recent episode we learned about prevention of teenage pregnancy and some of the consequences of engaging in early sex, including early motherhood. Today, we will learn more about one of the health impacts of engaging in early sex called HIV, how this can be prevented and the consequences of getting a HIV infection from sex. This information will help you make informed decisions to delay sex and to help you know the facts in the future.
After this episode, you will be able to:
1. Define the term HIV
2. Explain how to seek HIV testing and treatment
3. Dispel some myths about HIV
4. Understand how to prevent getting HIV
