Dec 17 2022
This documentary brings us to South Africa to investigate the epicenter of the HIV pandemic to expand the potential of our social networking technologies and explore solutions for an HIV-free future.

HIV is the second most deadly disease in human history, and continues to vie for the prime position. the HI Virus has claimed over 30 MILLION lives since its discovery, and still counting. New research and increased accessibility of ARVs have made the realization of a future free from HIV a real possibility. What is particular about HIV is that it is a social disease, most commonly contracted through sexual contact; it is affected by social norms. We have had the knowledge and the means to prevent new HIV infections and keep HIV patients alive for decades…So why do we continue to see new infections and AIDS related deaths?

Our new social networking technologies have allowed researchers to understand how behaviors move through networks at population scale.
