‘Every 11 seconds, someone in sub-Saharan Africa becomes infected with AIDS.’

A straight-faced Stephen Merchant shares this dismal fact with t5m, in his effort to support World AIDS Day and Nelson Mandela’s 46664 charity. He unites in a force of celebrity advocates to raise awareness to the epidemic.

Stephen Merchant expresses the need to help the children worse affected by the AIDS epidemic, and the role that governments should play in the effort, and repeats the effort’s mantra, ‘It’s in our hands.’

‘National governments, international partners and communities, are failing to provide adequate support for the 15 million children orphaned by AIDS, and for the millions of other children made vulnerable by the epidemic.’
