Ksurrina ARE YOU SURE OF WHAT YOU ARE TELLING PEOPLE HERE,ARE YOU SURE THAT YOU HAVE HIV?I AM EVANGLIST ANTHONY I AM IN SENEGAL NOW,IF YOU ARE WITH HIV PLEASE CONTACT ME I WILL TELL YOU WHAT TO DO....GOD IS BIGER THAN HIV.....MAN OR WOMAN MUST TO STOP ANYTHING SEX WITHOUT MARRY.....When Jesus heard that, he said, This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby. -John 11:3, 4,Jesus always did the will of God, and he never made anyone sick with HIV. In fact, he healed HIV  “...all that were oppressed of the devil...” (Acts 10:38-KJV). Therefore, God’s will must also be to heal people FROM HIV . Colossians 1:15 says that Jesus is the “…image of the invisible God...COME TO JESUS,IN  (1 John 5:19). First, it is essential to understand that God gave humans complete and genuine free will. Adam chose to sin, and thus brought disease, death, and destruction into the world. That is not God’s fault. The Fall unleashed a host of germs and viruses that were not part of God’s original plan.

Bible says: “Precious [costly or weighty] in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints” (Ps. 116:15). If we die before the Lord comes, our work here on earth is done, so all Christians who embrace this Hope should do as much as we can now for as long as we can. With that in mind, let us take a look at how diet can work to maximize the fruitfulness of our days here on earth.

HIV CAN NOT KILL WHILE WE ARE WITH GOD,WHEN YOU ARE WITH GOD YOU WILL NOT THINK OF SEX,MANY PEOPLE SEE SEX AS LOVE IT IS NOT,Proverbs 17:22 A cheerful heart is good medicine...First, “He sent his word, and healed them…” (Ps. 107:20-KJV). God’s Word heals when it is received, understood, and believed.

Luke 4:18 and 19 (KJV)
(18) The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
(19) To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
only did Jesus heal those who came to him with faith, he also empowered and instructed his disciples to do likewise:

Matthew 10:1
He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.God anointed Jesus with holy spirit power for his mission on earth, and, since his exaltation as “Lord,” Jesus has anointed each person who believes in him with the same gift of holy spirit. The Lord Jesus is still highly invested in energizing signs, miracles, and wonders,Thanks for your understanding and God be with you,and remain bless.....


lmao Why would I lie about HIV go to my blog and stop quoting scriptures to me. Am a Christian and so I know that God is bigger than HIV. I wonder why would I be lying on a forum like this knowing that there is so many discrimination and stigma to this disease. Instead of quoting scriptures let us join hands and heart to work together to show the devil that our God is not one of sickness. Have a holy sunday and week ahead.

this USAIDS report is true, but this doesn't means that all of us are going to be infected,why cos every day morethan this figure were born uninfected and every day  some of the infected figures were dying, so this means that if we take a preventive measures one day we will live in HIV/AIDS free society, it begins with you.

There are persons out there who are not tested and are infected these are not in that UNAIDS report. As for the ones who are dying how many persons are really dying from HIV. Complications from AIDS is what kill not the disease so I wonder when will there be an HIV/AIDS free world. We need to start taking responsibilities getting tested and if infected use condoms if need to have sex. Even two infected persons having sex together as to used a condom to avoid re-infection. The only time there will be an HIV/AIDS free world is when there is a cure. Do you actually believe that those in authorities want to have a cure when this is a money making venture? Think about this.

For the Record I was diagnosed with HIV and not AIDS. There is a difference between the two. One cannot caught AIDS they caught the HIV virus and after years of not treating the body properly or having additional sickness the Immune System breaks down which allow the Virus to spread more and then it goes to the AIDS stage. One can live with the Virus for years without taking medications. I am one of those who is not on medication.

Just take precautions and encourage others to do the same. Precautions such as:

1. Doing a HIV test with your Partner
2. Use a condom all the time
3. Having one faithful Partner
4. Being on the scene of an accident don't touch the blood that is around it. Universal Precautions is not only for Hairdressers, Barbers and those in the healthcare sector it goes for you too.

An remember that you cannot caught HIV by socializing with one who is infected.

Hugs and blessings

You are a brave lady. Just keep on with the positive mental attitude. God bless you.

I BELIEVE SOME OF THE STORY IS TRUE, BUT THE REAL HIVS ARE: THE MINISTER OF HEALTH, SENATORS, STATE GOVTS, AND THE PEOPLE IN GOVT.  GIVE THEN THE MONEY AND THEIR HIV GREED EYES WILL EAT UP ALL THE MONEY. THEY DONT CARE ABOUT NIG CITIZENS WITH AIDS/HIV.   ALL THIS GREED MINISTERS BELIEVE THAT HIV/AIDS LIVES IN THEIR FAT HOUSES & POCKET, SO THEY VE TO START TREATMENT BY MAINTAINING THEIR POCKETS HEALTH.  OLE

Tsurrina, thank you so much for educating those who did not understand anything about HIV & AID. You actually broke it down and you supported your explanation with advices and steps to take in order not to catch the HIV virus. Once again, thank you so much, God save and bless us all

 I had come across some earlier statistics <maybe fictitious > putting the HIV infections levels in Nigeria at greater astronomical heights. It was indeed scary talking about 20-25% infection rate something thereabout or even higher if i can recall. i did not keep the memory as i did not take the source as credible as it also had racist undertones

So in a way if genuine, the  figures  recently  quoted here is a bit of a relief and "nothing spoil " as the minister said .

i believe this news is directed to  pointing  us to moral responsibility and self discipline.



It is a good idea to marry only one wife and remain faithfully loyal to each other .

Modern relationships are impatient for marriage before sex so ensure u have one faithful partner at a time and if you are unsure of your partners faithfulness take safety precautions .

With God as your guide u can choose between your life and your partner .  There are marriages where people are forced to choose  between their lives and their spouses. 

Above all , Having HIV is not the end of Life studies show people who hav been living with the disease for the past 20  plus years . and the HIV strains are getting weaker and weaker these days thru mutation and the bodys defense mechanisms getting more used to living the virus .  But many would rather live happily than have some uninvited guest that might recreate them as less worthy than their real worth until they find their balance again.

The United Nations AIDS programme has said that Nigeria records at least 1,000 new HIV infections every day.



A United States-based Nigerian news agency, Empowered Newswire, in a report on Thursday, said that UNAIDS declared that three million people were living with the condition in Nigeria.

According to the news agency, UNAIDS said, “There is a growing demand for access to treatment and prevention services in Nigeria, which can only be met by strengthening the current partnership between global, national and local partners.”

Commenting on the figures, the Director-General of the National Agency for AIDS Control, Prof. John Idoko, said that there was no cause for alarm.

“New infections in the country are between 370,000 and 380,000 annually. If you divide the figures by 350 days, it will be within that range,” he said.

The Minister of Health Minister, Prof. Babatunde Osotimehin, commended UNAIDS for mobilising the participation of non-governmental organisations, faith-based entities and the private sector to support the national AIDS response.

“This has helped us gain momentum in rolling out access to services. “We still have challenges. We are aware that resources are limited, but we must meet the expectations of the people we have mobilised,”he said. 

Meanwhile, ahead of the 2010 World Cup, South Africa on Thursday announced that the supply of condoms would be doubled between June and July.

According to Daily News, the country‘s figure of HIV/AIDS stood at 5.7 million, more than any other country in the world.

Medical authorities in South Africa said they want to make sure there was plenty around in time for the games, which will be held in June and July.

“There’s going to be a large number of people who will be descending onto the country,” said Victor Ramathesele, general medical officer for South Africa‘s 2010 organising committee.

“There’s going to be a spirit of festivity and there could be a more than usual demand for measures such as condoms. So there are measures in place to ensure that the condom supply is going to be ramped up during this tournament,” he added.

After years when the South African government failed to provide lifesaving HIV/AIDS drugs, the nation now has the world’s biggest anti-retroviral programme.



i'm nt doubting this story
Nigerians, hav attitude problems, when it comes to dealing with HIV/AIDS
