Rodriguez said that young people must be one of the groups on which further progress should be sought campaigns that seek to forge a healthy sex education before the beginning of the relationship to an increasingly early age.
He insisted that the increase in the number of people affected by HIV / AIDS should serve to "alert" to the regional administration of the need to implement prevention campaigns of sexual diseases.
He criticized the "refusal" to HIV patients in public schools, and that this, in your opinion, is the result of "acts prejudicial and discriminatory" and demanded the withdrawal of AIDS diseases catalog 'infectious'.
The local coordinator also emphasized the importance of early diagnosis and speeding up the test results of the disease and the role of primary care in the detection of cases of HIV / AIDS.
Further urged the regional government to grant more resources to the associations that work daily with people affected by HIV, or who have gone on to develop AIDS, and the widespread use of condoms to prevent disease.
"Even in the XXI century, inequalities are cruel. A total of 15 million children orphaned by AIDS in underdeveloped countries where drugs fail or there is no prevention programs," he said.
