The National Association of People Living with HIV/AIDS (NAPWA) has used World AIDS Day to call for Australia to commit to adopting new technology to fight HIV transmission, with the goal of eliminating transmission and new diagnoses before the end of the decade.

NAPWA president Robert Mitchell said 2011 marks a significant turning-point in the HIV epidemic.
