Hyderabad: Health Minister C Laxma Reddy will inaugurate the three-day 10th National Conference of AIDS Society

Speaking to the media here on Thursday, Dr Ishwar Gilada, President of the AIDS Society of India (ASI) and President of the conference said that over 500 HIV medical experts of various clinical and scientific disciplines from across the country and other nations including USA and Australia, would take part in ASICON-2017, he said.

Dr Gilada, who was among the first few doctors in India, came forward for HIV management when the first case got diagnosed in the country. He said,” we cannot become complacent in our efforts, because of failing to reach out to each of the estimated Patients Living with HIV (PLHIV) and putting them on ART threatens to reverse the progress made in fighting AIDS.”
