The African Christian Democratic Party today said it is optimistic about South Africa’s progress in the fight against HIV but cautiously so in the case of TB.

Deputy President Kgalema Motlanthe announced that a new campaign will be launched this year to encourage South Africans to test for HIV at least once a year. 

ACDP’s MP Cheryllyn Dudley said they are extremely pleased that over the past two years, the mother to child HIV transmission has decreased.

She added that there is a need for people to ensure that they complete their TB treatment and only in that way the TB would be fought successfully.
