HIV (Human Immuno Virus) being rampant issue threatens to go in multitude especially in
Cebu. Nowadays, teenagers are the common factor that has been badly affected by this roaming virus.
Philippines as one of the world’s biggest contributors of the said disease conducted an all out seminars
throughout the country.

In Compostela, HIV Symposium was held to inculcate an awreness to people especially the
youth. Students from Compostela National High School actively participated the said seminar. Each
section had two participants to attend the program and assigned to share their learnings to their co-
students. The program’s intention is to reduce the incidents and induce an effect brought by this
hazardous virus. Educating the young ones is a helpful tool to empower them in recognizing what the
DOs and DON’Ts particularly in sex education. It focuses more on the consequences in attaining such
illness.It is important to identify and equip ourselves with knowledge on how to fight this kind of
deadly disease enabling to prevent it from spreading. However, we could overcome it by disciplining
ourselves and absorb the learnings to face HIV fearlessly. We should take it seriously and be thankful
to the government’s effort to come up with an effective campaign regarding its war on HIV. We must
open our eyes and deprive ourselves from fleeting pleasure.

As the quote goes, “Prevention is better than cure.”
