The face of the raising awareness of HIV response in India, Dr Suniti Solomon passed away peacefully in Chennai yesterday. She is also the founding director member of YRG CARE, and a board member of the HIV/AIDS India alliance.
Dr Suniti Solomon was instrumental in driving a nation-wide discussion on the subject, through her experience from biomedical to the socio economic range on HIV/AIDS. Her foremost initiative was the document on the first evidence of HIV infection in India in 1986 which brought the required attention to the then emerging epidemic.
