Baku. Elbrus Seyfullayev â€“ APA. Member of the Azerbaijani Parliament Ganira Pashayeva proposed to increase efforts toward the identification of secret HIV-carriers during the discussions over draft law on prevention of diseases caused by immune deficiency, APA reports. She said identification of the secret drug addicts should also be intensified. Pashayeva urged for prevention of the disease. â€œThe problem should be struggled in time. Televisions and radios should conduct educational campaign. According to the law, 20 minutes of airtime should be allocated by the state-run and public televisions to the educational work for prevention of HIV/AIDS. However this program should be granted with not less than 90 minutes on air. On the other hand, such programs should be broadcasted in prime time. Generally the organizations which have to conduct the educational work should increase their responsibilityâ€.
