Mancherial: District Medical and Health Officer (DMHO) Dr GC Subbarayudu said that everyone should have awareness over Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Speaking on the occasion, Subbarayudu said that the chronic disease was being diagnosed at the district headquarters hospital and primary health centres for free. The results of the testing would not be disclosed to anyone. Syrup is given to a new mother to prevent the spread of the disease to infants for free, he explained.
The DMHO advised the people to utilise services extended by the government. He told the artists to illustrate the precautions to be followed by the public to prevent AIDS.
