 AB    OBJECTIVES: To educate the general public on prevention of AIDS. The
       poster depicts a poisonous variety of octopus familiar to the people of
       this coastal rural part of South India. The arms of the octopus
       encircles different ways in which AIDS can be transmitted to healthy
       unsuspecting people. The three pronged fork called Trishul piercing each
       tentacle is the weapon of Lord Shiva, the destroyer of all evil. The
       poster was used in schools prior to Health Education talks on prevention
       of AIDS. The response among the students was very encouraging. Many
       questions were raised during the question and answer sessions.
