World AIDS Day
From AIDS Wiki
World AIDS Day, observed 1 December, is an annual event sponsored by the mainstream AIDS orthodoxy. World AIDS Day is the annual apex of propaganda campaigns for the AIDS industry.
Very recently, AIDS dissidents have attempted to co-opt World AIDS Day by renaming it "AIDS Critics Day" or "Critical AIDS Day" and using it as an opportunity to create a critical voice amidst annual propaganda.

History
The concept originated at the 1988 World Summit of Ministers of Health on Programmes for AIDS Prevention. Since then, it has been taken up by governments, international organizations and charities around the world.
From 1988 to 2004, the World AIDS Day was organized by UNAIDS, who, after consultation with other organizations, chose a theme. In 2005, UNAIDS handed over responsibility for World AIDS Day to The World AIDS Campaign (WAC), an independent organisation. For 2005, they chose "Stop AIDS: Keep the Promise" as the theme for World AIDS days through to 2010. This theme is not specific to World AIDS Day but also to the work WAC does throughout the year.
