Thirty years have passed since South Korea reported its first case of human immunodeficiency virus infection, which causes acquired immune deficiency syndrome, on June 29, 1985. The number of new cases is on the rise, with more than 1,000 new HIV patients being reported each year. HIV, however, has become a chronic, manageable disease due to rapid advance in treatment, health authorities say.
As of late 2014, more than 8,600 people in Korea were living with HIV, mostly men who contracted the virus through sexual contact. .
"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
