Today, my mates and I went to the Chinese university at University and we attend the HIV AIDS presentation. The full form of HIV is Human Immunodeficiency virus and the full form of AIDS is Acquired ImmunoDeficiency Syndrome.
It was about how the HIV can transmitted to another human. It can transmitted by sexual intercourse, mother to infant and through blood contact. We learn that the HIV cannot be curable but it is treatable. There are medicines and treatments that can upgrade the immune system.We also learn that there are three ethnic groups that have HIVS AIDS in Hong Kong and they are Vitnamese, Thai and Nepalese. Around 972 are non-chinese asians with HIVS AIDS and around 5922 are the Hong Kong Chinese people with HIV AIDS. What we learned today was basic about the disease, I already knew some of the facts.
I want everyone to read about Pedro Zamora in wikipedia He is a latino and he is from a working class family.He had HIV AIDS and he knew that when he was 17 years old. When he was 13 years old, he stared dating men and had a physical contact without a protection because he didn't know that it could cause HIV AIDS.You guys and borrow the comic version book from Mr.Area's class. You can see the problems that he faced and the diseases he encountered and the things that he did to educate young people about HIV AIDS.
