{"product_id":"14-days-namakau-nalumango-9798516527852","title":"14 Days: Scenes from the Closet","description":"When the HIV \u0026amp; AIDS Pandemic arrived in the African community, no one knew what to believe or what to do. Initially exclusively connected to sexual activity, HIV \u0026amp; AIDS was viewed as immoral. Because it was stigmatized, it was denied. Everyone was at risk. Yet, it was viewed as 'their disease, not mine'. Many shied away from using protection and people died.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'14 Days: Scenes from the Closet' chronicles short stories about ordinary people grappling with HIV \u0026amp; AIDS-related situations around the Southern African Development Community (SADC) in the year, 2004. It seeks to point out various pitfalls that stalked the innocent. It examines views on the use of condoms in the fight against the pandemic, while decrying the stigmatization of HIV \u0026amp; AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs). 14 DAYS lays bare, some of the issues that complicated the struggle against the pandemic, as witnessed by the First Generation of HIV \u0026amp; AIDS. Individuals and families died, but human resilience survived through individual and corporate effort.\u003cbr\u003eBesides its medical implications, AIDS is a moral issue. It is economical, developmental, psychological, social, cultural, and even political. AIDS lies with the common denominator of the equation of power and subjugation, affecting decisions and responses. A very individual matter, it is corporately influenced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFirst published under the same title as a paperback by 'HOT Editions Investments', Gaborone, Botswana, (2006), ISBN 99912-0-592-6, 14, DAYS is republished in different formats to meet the needs of the 21st reader-lest today's youth forget the world's most devastating pandemic of the 20th Century.
