Tendai and Tapiwa are good friends. They became lovers. Both of them attend the same school. One day Tapiwa decided to have sex with Tendai to prove that they loved each other. He decided to approach Tendai about this. When Tendai heard Tapiwa’s proposal, she was very surprised and she refused to have sex with him.
Tapiwa then said to her girl friend “l will abandon you and look for other girls who might dance to my tune”. But Tendai knew a lot about HIV/AIDS transmission because she is a member of the Anti-Aids Club.
There are many ways in which people can protect themselves from HIV/AIDS for example, avoid sharing sharp instruments, no sex before marriage, sticking to one faithful partner. Anti-AIDS Clubs help to disseminate information through drama, sports and lessons etc.
According one of our sessions it was learnt that a mosquito can not spread HIV and also that HIV AND AIDS can not be spread through shaking hands.
