It’s World AIDS Day today. And as we saw with the emergence of HIV/AIDS, pandemics expose the critical need for large-scale change in healthcare, public health, and beyond.
Aqua background with illustration of four purple-toned hands holding up white protest signs. The signs say: “Today we mark World AIDS Day.” “Our struggles are connected.” COVID isn’t over.” “We keep us safe.” Along the bottom edge are logos for Long C0VID Justice and Strategies for High Impact.

The Aranet air monitor is a great tool for checking air quality in any space. You can borrow one for short-term use from us!
