WHO Namibia with UN Cares jointly educates UN Staff on Mental Health in the Workplace

"Work related stress is attributed to the quantity of work and multiple deadlines and ones ability to manage this. A tense, non- friendly work space can escalate the stress levels in the office and affect interpersonal relations in the office."

This was said by the WHO Representative, Dr Charles Sagoe-Moses at a UN Cares function on mental health in the workplace for UN staff in Namibia.

The event was jointly hosted by WHO Namibia and UN Cares on 20 October 2017 as part of creating awareness on mental health in the workplace.

Treatment and care (HIV/AIDS)

Submitted by teklemariamm@who.int on

No effective cure for HIV exists at present but HIV can be suppressed by a combination of medicines called antiretroviral (ARV) therapy consisting of three or more ARV drugs. Antiretroviral therapy does not cure HIV infection but suppresses viral replication within a person's body and allows an individual's immune system to strengthen and regain the capacity to fight off infections.

People with HIV can enjoy long, healthy lives by taking ARV treatment.
