World AIDS Day on 1 December

15 December 2016

On 6 December 2016 at the Dormitory No. 4 by the Department of Epidemiology and Communal Hygiene was conducted a training on HIV prevention among young people. The purpose of the training was to teach students to evaluate the own risks, to avoid dangerous situations and protect themselves and their loved ones from the infection.
1-4 year students of “Public health” and “Medical and preventive care” specialties, who live in the dormitory, attended the training.
At the beginning of the training was shown a film about the epidemiological situation of HIV infection in the world and in our republic, about the sources, modes and factors of transmission, the methods of prevention and diagnosis. The students of 4-004 group of “Medical and preventive care” specialty were the hosts of the training and conducted a game titled “Our Game”.

The game was based on the materials of the video. “AntiAIDS” team was in competition with “AntiVirus” team. During the game the participants could show their knowledge about the genesis of this infection, sources, modes and factors of transmission, preventive and diagnostic measures against HIV infection. The event was really positive, interesting, funny, and educational. The attendees could answer the questions, which were difficult for the participants of the teams. Of cause, it is only a game, but “AntiVirus” team became the winner due to a slight advantage. It was a nice surprise when the winning team was given a sweet gift.
