Biden Hosts AIDS Memorial Quilt at White House for World AIDS Day
This World AIDS Day, the AIDS Memorial Quilt will be displayed on the White House South Lawn, a first-time occurrence representing a powerful tribute to over 105,000 lives lost to AIDS. President and First Lady Biden will lead a moment of silence before the public is allowed to view the nearly 50,000 panels. The event highlights progress in the fight against HIV/AIDS while acknowledging ongoing challenges. The White House also emphasizes the administration’s commitment to ending the HIV epidemic through expanded access to medication, research funding, and initiatives addressing social determinants of health.
