archivesFIGHTING AIDS AMONG COLORADO'S LATINOS
A week from today, Thursday, June 27th, is National HIV testing day. AIDS/HIV outreach programs are encouraging people to get tested and know their HIV status. This year is the 25th anniversary of the discovery of the HIV virus, which causes AIDS. Since that time, the face of the disease has changed considerably. Nowadays people of color, youths in their teens and twenties and women are at increasing risk of infection. Maeve Conran reports on efforts to discover and prevent the disease among one of the state's most marginalized populations, Latino farm workers.
