The ANCYL welcomes the highly intensive HIV and AIDS intervention campaign of the ANC led government that will commence in April 2010. This is an indication of the fulfillment of the President's committment on World Aids Day to amplify extensive measures to increase treatment of HIV and AIDS.

The ANCYL holds in high regard the efforts of the Government in minimising the pandemic of HIV and AIDS and its impact. The campaign will focus on massive education, information and mobilisation and involve all government hospitals and clinics, universities and further education and training campuses.

The ANCYL further welcomes the focus on the availability of post exposure prophylaxis that will be available for rape survivors at all health facilities without a request for a case number from the police.
