This December 1st will mark the 19th World AIDS Day. In 26 years Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome has traveled to every corner of the globe. The disease has killed 23 million people and today 40 million people are living with the virus. While Anti-retroviral drugs are prolonging lives, roughly 4.3 million new cases occur annually. Today we take you to a Buddhist monastery, turned AIDS hospice just outside of Lopburi, Thailand. You'll hear from Maryknoll priest, Mike Bassano who has spent the last 8 years as a caregiver at the hospice.
