What happens

AIDS: Don't Die of Ignorance was a public health information campaign begun in 1986 by the UK Government in response to the rise of HIV/AIDS in the United Kingdom. The government believed that millions of people could become infected, so newspaper adverts were published, a leaflet was sent to every home in the UK, and, most memorably, a television advertising campaign was aired.
