Hey guys,

Just a quick reminder that World AIDS Day is tomorrow, December 1, so as I result I’ve been working really hard to put together a special edition of videoflow (today @ 2pm ET) to recognize the devastating importance of not only the education but effective ways to prevent the spread of HIV.

A lot of people who live in the first world assume that AIDS is something that only affects Africans or gay men, which obviously is completely wrong. In fact the new highest HIV infection rate in Canada is among young, white women.

I’m not going to pretend that it’s easy to not sound like somebody’s mom or dad when talking about AIDS and HIV, so we want to turn the tables. If there’s anything you have ever wanted to know about AIDS; rumours about statistics you’ve heard, things you’re not sure about, or maybe even a personal story related to HIV, we want to hear from you!

You can send in an email in anonymously if you prefer, the point is to get as many people involved as possible. Get involved! Be a part of the solution!

Email me @ worldaidsday@muchmusic.com.

Can’t wait to hear from you!

Devon
