Antes de Pensar na Cor Faca o Teste da SIDA (literally translates to "Before Thinking of the Color Do the AIDS Test"), the 1990s Portuguese poster created to educate people about HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) which causes AIDS (Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome) and how to protect themselves from the disease. Note that when AIDS gripped the world in 1981, local authorities, healthcare providers and governments quickly created health posters as a way to inform people about the new disease. These public health campaigns continued for over 20 years and still endure in some parts of the world today. The posters show the different tactics, images (some quite provocative) and messages used by various countries and health agencies in their attempts to educate people about the AIDS/HIV threat. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Portugal was among the European countries with the largest number of new HIV infections, relative to its population size. Since the emergence of the epidemic, Portugal has shown its commitment to mounting a strong HIV response based on evidence, adopting people-centered approaches and promoting the involvement of civil society, including people living with HIV. In 2018 Portugal has achieved 2 of the 3 HIV targets set by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), known as the 90-90-90 targets: 91.7% of people living with HIV are diagnosed; 86.8% of people diagnosed are on treatment; and 90.3% of people on treatment achieve HIV viral load suppression. This puts the country on track to reach all 3 targets ahead of the 2020 deadline.
