World AIDS Day

AIDS awareness flags lined Ninth Street on Dec. 1 in Columbia, Mo.
 On my walk home today, I noticed a few dozen flags lining the sidewalks of Broadway and Ninth Street for World AIDS Day, an international day dedicated to raising awareness about HIV. About 33.4 million people are living with HIV worldwide, according to UNAIDS. I was happy to see that people in Columbia were taking part in spreading awareness.
