AIDS cases, Pasuruan Third Largest

This concern for residents of Pasuruan regency. Based on data released by the East Java Provincial Health Office, District of Pasuruan ranked third in the number of AIDS cases findings. AIDS cases in Pasuruan regency is mentioned as much as 204 cases. Lower than the city of Surabaya and Sidoarjo as many as 465 cases 242 cases. However, higher than the City and County of Malang which ranks fourth and fifth. This data was obtained Musa Nova Kurniawan, chairman of the Muhammadiyah Youth Pasuruan when he joined the workshop on the Islamic approach to HIV / AIDS. Workshop held at the Hotel Ketapang Beautiful, Banyuwangi, for three days, starting Friday 14 until Sunday, November 16 yesterday. Participants consist of 80 persons from Muhammadiyah, NU, MUI, KPA (National AIDS Commission). Meanwhile, the region that were invited came from Banyuwangi Regency, Pasuruan, Malang and Kediri. I myself got surprised, after release from a doctor Surabaya, Pasuruan stating it ranked third in the number of AIDS cases in East Java. I think this, not just the responsibility of the medical side, but also non-medical, from community leaders, clergy and youth element, Nova Musa said when met in East Java, after attending a workshop yesterday.
