ELTON JOHN,DONATED $5M TO SUB-SAHARAN AFRICAN ORGANISATIONS TO HELP GAY AIDS VICTIMS.

                   Today thursday,Elton John Aids Foundation gave $5m to organisations in sub-Saharan Africa who work with lesbian,bisexual,gay and transgender people suffering from AIDS or HIV.Sir Elton John believes that HIV/AIDS is spreading across Africa because people are afraid to come out publicly that they are gay.He says the stigmatization they suffer makes them more vulnerable to contracting the disease.Elton said ''It stigmatizes the disease and the conditions where they live and so they don't come out and have HIV tests.They feel nervous about going on the medication,about being labelled or branded as someone with HIV,so we really have to go in and attack the root of the problem and that is the stigmatization and lack of safe access to treatment and advice and counselling.Otherwise,we won't stop the disease in tracks''.John and his husband David Furnish,will unveil a new partnership with the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief {PEPFAR},with the Elton John AIDS Foundation and PEPFAR each contributing $5 million to a fund to increase access to medication for people with HIV and AIDS in countries that are prejudiced towards the lesbian,gay,bisexual,and transgender {LGBT} community.One more photo below.
