Are you talking about it?

Here is part of an email I received from someone named Steve Banda:

I have read your blog with a smile though sad. It was really job well done and please keep it up.

Malawi needs people like you as you know the country is big, so you only took time-out in Central part of it, please try to come back as the doors are wide open for you.

I listened to your interview with DJ KMM or Paul Ncozana and one voice clip which reveals there's large number of people who don't know what HIV or AIDS is all about.....I'm concern we Malawians don't do enough to educate our own siblings of the epidemic...which for years has been a ruthless predator.

Thanks for choosing Malawi.



Lack of knowledge of this virus is definitely not unique to Malawi, but the radio clip and comments I've received do make me wonder, how comfortable do you - Radio Yako's listeners - feel about either asking or answering HIV/AIDS-related questions within your families and communities?

Please share!
