Nine people are now HIV positive in the island
|
The number of HIV positive people in Jersey has trebled over the past two years.
Health organisation ACET says the number of cases has gone up from three to nine.
Now ACET is hoping to remind people of the need to practice safe sex as part of World Aids Day.
In Jersey, the number of people infected with HIV as well as other sexually transmitted diseases is increasing.
ACET says young people need to be targeted with information about safe sex, and the way other diseases like syphilis and gonorrhoea can be transmitted.
