Bulgaria marks World AIDS Day with a number of initiatives. World AIDS Day has been held since 1988 on the initiative of the World Health Organization. It aims to raise awareness of the Aids pandemic caused by the HIV infection and adress the HIV-related stigma.

The majority of the new HIV infections are predominantly in big cities- Sofia, Varna, Plovdiv, Burgas, the Regional Health Inspectorate-Kyustendil announced.
