Prevent HIV transmission frommother to child

The ignorance surrounding HIV and AIDS is terrifying but very present.
Did you know that:
More than 25 million people have died of AIDS since 1981.
Africa has 12 million AIDS orphans.

AVERT - a UK based AIDS charity has a campaign in order to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to child. Please take a second and read the following to increase your awareness about the issues surrounding AIDS and how you can help!

What is the problem?
380,000 children die of AIDS every year. If nothing is done then more than 1 million will die by 2010.

Can this be prevented?
Yes, it can. The vast majority of these child deaths can be prevented by stopping the transmission of HIV from mothers to their babies. If babies don’t become infected with HIV then they won’t develop AIDS and die.

What is the target of the Stop AIDS in Children campaign?
We are asking for urgent efforts to be made to prevent the transmission of HIV from mother to baby, so that by 2010, the number of children dying of AIDS will have been halved.

How can transmission of HIV from mother to baby be prevented?
Any baby born to a mother with HIV risks becoming infected during pregnancy, birth or breastfeeding. The chance of this happening can be massively reduced by giving HIV infected mothers and their babies anti-HIV drugs and, where appropriate, by feeding the baby using formula rather than breast milk.

These interventions are known as the Prevention of Mother-To-Child Transmission or “PMTCT”. Without these interventions, around one in three babies born to women with HIV will become infected with HIV themselves.

Company Policy

Company Policy:
Effective from 2007

Dress Code
It is advised that you come to work dressed according to your salary. If we see you wearing prada shoes and carrying a Gucci bag, we assume you are doing well financially and therefore do not need a raise. If you dress poorly, you need to learn to manage your money better, so that you may buy nicer clothes, and therefore you do not need a raise. If you dress just right, you are right where you need to be and therefore you do not need a raise.

Sick Days
We will no longer accept a doctor's statement as proof of sickness. If you are able to go to the doctor, you are able to come to work.

Personal Days

Each employee will receive 104 personal days a year. They are called Saturday & Sunday.

Bereavement Leave
This is no excuse for missing work. There is nothing you can do for dead friends, relatives or co-workers. Every effort should be made to have non-employees attend to the arrangements. In rare cases where employee involvement is necessary, the funeral should be scheduled in the late afternoon. We will be glad to allow you to work through your lunch hour and subsequently leave one hour early.

Toilet Use
Entirely too much time is being spent in the toilet. There is now a strict three-minute time limit in the stalls. At the end of three minutes, an alarm will sound, the toilet paper roll will retract, the stall door will open, and a picture will be taken. After your second offence, your picture will be posted on the company bulletin board under the 'Chronic Offenders category'. Anyone caught smiling in the picture will be sanctioned under the company's mental health policy.

Lunch Break
Skinny people get 30 minutes for lunch, as they need to eat more, so that they can look healthy. Normal size people get 15 minutes for lunch to get a balanced meal to maintain their average figure. Chubby people get 5 minutes for lunch, because that's all the time needed to drink a Slim-Fast.

Thank you for your loyalty to the institution. We are here to provide a positive employment experience. Therefore, all questions, comments, concerns, complaints, frustrations, irritations, aggravations, insinuations, allegations, accusations, contemplations, consternation and input should be directed elsewhere
