Question:
Answers:
AIDS hasn't swept through my neighborhood yet, but influenza has gone through 30 times in 30 years!
ask this question to the people that live in africa.
1400 Children under the age of 15 will die of HIV today
3.1 million people died from HIV/AIDS in 2004 alone
8000 people die each day from HIV/AIDS globaly
of all the cases actually reported and known half 50% of them are women
More than 40 million people are living with HIV/AIDS
5 teens get HIV everyday
it hasn't swept through my neighborhood yet. Mom and Dad are still waiting.
AIDS swept thru Africa, stopped at the ocean, then decided to cross the ocean and infect male homosexuals while leaving female homosexuals alone like a smart bomb. By the way, you are not allowed to count your neighborhood. That is the exclusive job reserved for homosexuals.
male homosexuals decided to infect Africa and leave my neighborhood alone. My thanks to them. Now the AIDS counters are Africans from Nigeria.
we don't have any AIDS in my neighborhood ever since the gays left. We still have some lesbians in the neighborhood but they seem to be immune to AIDS for the past 30 years. Come to think of it, governments seem to be immune also ... I don't see any politicians getting AIDS.
What a lot of baloney for answers to a serious and thought-provoking question. The real truth of the matter is that we have no way of knowing how prevalent AID/HIV is in our very own neighborhoods, because people don't actually announce that they have it. Mostly because of attitudes that mimic the ones of the people who gave answers to your question!
AIDS is not a homosexual disease. It's not a "black" or African disease. It is not a scourge from God. It is a pandemic, scary, and cure less disease that kills way too many people every year. Children are dying. EVERY DAY.
So...in answer to your question, I have no idea how fast its sweeping through my neighborhood, but I'd bet it's pretty fast.
My answer to the boneheads that answered your question before me is - learn about this disease. Do it now before someone you love gets it. Have a little compassion for those who are suffering from the disease, or suffering because someone THEY love is dying.
