Half will die before their second birthday.300,000 new HIV infections occurred among teenagers in 2012; 2.1 million pre-teen and teen (10-19 years) were living with HIV.

I think it is really terrible what is happening over in Africa. We are so blind to what is happening. I think if more people find out about what is happening we can make a difference. I hope that america and other countries would more of an effort to find a cure and provide better sanitary conditions for Africa.What would you want to tell the world if you lived there?
