PSOE Marbella y San Pedro

On the morning of Socialist Youth today have submitted their campaign of AIDS awareness and prevention called "Blessed AIDS condom take away the world." Manuel García JSA secretary general of San Pedro, showed the concern of the young socialist by the unstoppable increase in the spread of AIDS, 2.8 million worldwide, 3000 of them in Spain, where it is estimated that between 120,000 and 150,000 without people infected with the AIDS virus, of which a quarter of them do not know it. "Hence, it is very important and necessary to break the stigma and fear that testing will become a daily health habit," Garcia said.

Therefore, from Socialist Youth these days intensify its ongoing information and prevention work, "without doubt, the best weapons we have to fight the scourge of AIDS," he continued.

And the more intense, especially in San Pedro and Marbella for young socialists miss a firm commitment by the municipality of Marbella and San Pedro. Do not understand how the councilman of Social Welfare, Manuel Cardenas, and especially the Mayor Angeles Muñoz, now that the council has taken on health, they can turn our backs on such a serious problem, as is the problem of AIDS. "We miss social policies aimed at raising public awareness to this problem," said Manuel Garcia.

Hence from the Socialist Youth team demanded that the Popular Party government, and especially Los Angeles Muñoz an ongoing AIDS awareness and prevention, and from the council itself will provide condoms to the public, especially youth.

"Young Socialists will not stand idly watching Angeles Muñoz is not fulfilling its obligations, which is none other than to improve the quality of life and sampedreñas sampedreños." So, once again, as we always do both Youth and from the Socialist party, assumed the responsibility to carry the street actions that correspond to their own governing team, said.

For his part, José Carlos Duran, newly elected general secretary of Young Socialists in the province of Malaga, said that it is a regional act simultaneously in the eight provinces of Andalusia, where in the province of Málaga is to distribute more than 3000 condoms and 3000 informative information leaflets about the importance of strengthening preventive measures against the epidemic.

In the words of Secretary General of Socialist Youth of Málaga, José Carlos Duran, AIDS "is not a scourge of the past but the present", so as the young socialist "is still necessary to promote healthy sexual behaviors by youth education and developing strategies for greater accessibility and ease of condom use. "

On the other hand, José Carlos Duran has referred to "those who try to blur the reality" in reference to the words of last week the spokesman for the Episcopal Conference, Martinez Camino. In this regard Duran was sharp, "strongly condemning the attitude of the Church, which only seeks to confuse the public, because the condom is the only effective way to stop HIV."

Duran has also sought to "reaffirm the commitment" of the socialist youth organization "in the fight against HIV", in addition to "recognize the work and the work we are developing non-governmental organizations and health professionals for people living with HIV have the treatment and adequate social and health care. "

José Carlos Duran recalled, in this sense, "the great task in this regard that we are all still ahead," alluding to the fact that "the end of 2009 the reported number of people being treated with antiretroviral drugs in low-income countries and medium was 5.25 million. " According to Durán this means "an increase of more than 1.2 million compared to December 2008, ie, the largest ever recorded in twelve months from the data recorded thereon.
