Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on HIV.

HIV

I understand that some of the figures that have been released in the past year for those who have just been diagnosed with HIV show that it is not just a young person's disease any more; it also affects those who are 50-plus or 55-plus. I wonder whether the hon. Lady is aware of that. If she is, what does she feel should be done to address that issue of those in an older age bracket who are now succumbing to the disease?
