Pia uses sizzling photo for HIV awareness campaign

MANILA: Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, who is on a mission to raise awareness about HIV, has grabbed the attention of her followers with a caption of her recent Instagram post, in which she sizzles in black swimsuit.

“Now that I have your attention, do you know your status yet? Cos I know mine. Not your relationship status, silly! I meant HIV status,” she was quoted as saying by Philippine Entertainment Portal.

Pia has pledged to advocate HIV or Human Immunodeficiency Virus awareness, along with anti-cyberbullying, since she was crowned Miss Universe 2015 last December, the report said.

During the question and answer portion of the Miss Universe, the Filipina stunner was asked why she deserves the crown.

Pia reportedly answered, “To be Miss Universe is both an honor and a responsibility. If I were to be Miss Universe, I will use my voice to influence the youth, and I will raise awareness [of] certain causes like HIV [which is] timely and relevant to my country.”

Pia had got herself tested for HIV held by community healthcare provider APICHA Community Health Center in June 2016, said the portal.
