--FILE--People visit the stand of Global pharmaceutical leader GSK (GlaxoSmithKline) in Shanghai, China, 30 August 2018. Global pharmaceutical leader GSK teamed up with the Home of Red Ribbon to launch an HIV education and prevention program, in a bid to offer more understanding and care for China's HIV patients. With the support of GSK China, the Home of Red Ribbon has established a three-year program, including a self-management program, to boost patients' confidence in combating the disease, and help them integrate into society. In addition, by introducing a Buddy Program, which trains volunteers through working closely with patients alongside the Home of Red Ribbon staff members, the plan aims to enhance their knowledge and skills. This is critical in ensuring better overall care and support are provided to HIV sufferers. In recent years, the rate of HIV infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) group has continued to rise. This is why the program will target both HIV-positive sexual partners and HIV-negative males within the group. Regular consultations and tests will be provided to enhance this group's self-protection awareness. Besides, through early detection, it can also help to decrease the overall spread of the disease.
