Our main purpose by launching this website is to provide easy access to comprehensive HIV/AIDS information on the Internet. Without doubt there is need for this. The number of HIV positive men and women in Bulgaria has been increasing and every year a new cases of HIV are identified. Behind each individual there are several other people, friends and relatives.
The web will be updated regularly with both new topics and fresh informtion on the disease aimed at educating HIV positve people as well as everybody who want to know more about the subject. Among other things, we intend to allow the general public, whether HIV positive or not, to send their queries to us. Anybody who is diagnosed with HIV, as well as his/her family, are bound to have a lot of questions. These questions will be answered here.
