In 2006 the first Mr HIV Positive Living Beauty Pageant was held in Gaborone, Botswana. The pageant was designed to reduce the country's accelerating rate of HIV infection by encouraging all men to test for their HIV status and to promote dramatic lifestyle changes needed to stop the spread of the disease.Up until this point, women rather then men, had been at the forefront of fighting the disease.The HIV epidemic in Botswana had reached disturbing proportions. An estimated 300,000 people were living with HIV, almost one-in-four adults. The country had the second highest prevalence of HIV in the world, 2nd after Swaziland.
