Elder Think Tank - HIV/AID Over 50

The Elder Think Tank is proud to present the second program in our fall series, HIV/AIDS Over 50. Please join us Sunday October 5th, at The DC Center, 1111 14th Street NW Suite 350, starting at 2:00 PM.

HIV is a virus that does not discriminate. Nearly one in 10 District residents aged 55 and older have HIV or AIDS. From 2001-2006, 245 new cases of HIV were reported among District residents aged 55 and older. There was an overall increase of 21% in newly report cases over that period of time.

• Dr. Shannon Hader, DC Department of Health HIV/AIDS Administration, will discuss HIV prevention issues for those 50 and older.
• Dr. Linda Green, Prince George’s Hospital Center, will discuss HIV/AIDS treatment for those 50 and older.

These presentations will be followed by questions and discussion. Please join us and be part of this conversation. This event is free and open to the public.
