The publicity of World AIDS Day can arouse people's sympathy and understanding for HIV-infected people and AIDS patients, and call on people all over the world to act together to support AIDS prevention and anti-discrimination work. China has different levels of organizations to provide services for HIV-infected people and AIDS patients, which has promoted the promotion of AIDS prevention and treatment and the development of anti-discrimination against AIDS [3].
Since the establishment of World AIDS Day, there has been a clear publicity theme every year. Around this theme, UNAIDS coordinates relevant UN agencies and mobilizes member countries to carry out various forms of publicity and education activities. 2020 is the 33rd World AIDS Day, and this year's theme is "Global Solidarity and Shared Responsibility". [4]
Some relevant laws, regulations and policy documents in China involve AIDS prevention and anti-discrimination, which is consistent with the purpose of setting up World AIDS Day.
