Abstract:
Beige poster divided into three columns of text and cartoon-like images illustrating points about the disease. The text is provided in both English and Chinese and is geared toward adolescents. The first column describes HIV and AIDS, the second lists three ways of getting the virus (sex, contaminated needles, and mother-to-infant), and the third lists both ways the disease is not transmitted and preventive measures in the classroom. In the lower right corner, the poster directly addresses youth: "If my classmate has HIV infection ...", this being followed by a colored drawing of two male students with their arms around a third.
