A: You are a Nazi. It is bad enough the useless tests band you for life under the new disclosure laws. A BRIEF HISTORY OF AIDS In the early 80''s, doctors started seeing more and more people with suppressed immune systems coming into emergency rooms with several opportunistic infections. These were primarily gay men and intravenous drug users. There was panic within the gay community and in the general population as more and more people began dying of what was called AIDS: Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. In 1984, Robert Gallo, a research scientist working for the National Institute of Health (NIH), announced in a press conference that he had discovered the probable cause of AIDS, and that it was a retrovirus later called HIV: Human...

A: Yes people can live long heathly lives with HIV. Its just a virus, there are people who live long and heathly lives with cancer, so HIV is no different. Also you shouldn''t get tested while you''re sick. You might get a false positive. Take the test when you''re feeling better. Yes, you can still have a long and healthy life with HIV. Whent he virus was first discovered in the early 80s, scientists knew nothing about it so people died very quickly from it. however, treatment for HIV has had many breakthroughs and advances. There are some great anti-viral drugs out that that can seriously...

A: no but they should wear a tag that says so. No, I think not. That makes HIV+ people sound like rats for a study. As that is a terrible label and act to do because of people with HIV+. If anything, I think the ones that rape/sexually assault their victims should be quarantine immediately after a police report. As such in my case, I am terrified now because I was a victim of a rape, and the pain and suffering I am going thru for past months whether to find out if I may had been exposed to HIV breaks my heart to the dearest. The pain I am going thru because I am scared to death that I may end up with a deadly disease. At first, I thought to myself, get rid of all HIV+ people and kill them all, but I realized that is...

A: This is the dumbest question ever! maybe they should but only if several positive results come back so it known its not a mess up! then people couldnt lie and hide it! fairness says just as you have a right to hide it they have the right to know morally! No that would be illegal. how ever if you slept with some one who was positive they legally have to tell you. you won''t be able to find a list with specific names, but your state health department can provide you with statistics.. NO! That is private information that cannot be shared! No! And thank God for a patient''s right to privacy! no of course not. this breaks the patient confidentiality agreement. this invades their privacy. you...

A: No SEX! 100% prevention. dont ever have sex with anyone with aids or hiv, always use a condom every single time you have sex, dont have gay sex, dont go to prostitutes, if u are completely protected there is a chance u may or may not spread this disease. you ae always taking chances. call a doctor if this is really a want and maybe they can prescribe some kind of antibiotics to keep u safer. avoid sex all together, if you must, use a condem, You risk is much greater than ever and if i were you, I would not risk my life.... you only have one. Like to play Russian Roulette do ya? %*#@ that man, I like living. Thats the interesting question, thats been brought up. If most people would not sleep with someone they knew...

A: why would u be ashamed of cancer? Hiv is sexually transmitted so of course ud be ashamed.. duh. why am i even answer this dumb question? o ya i get 2 points Because you usually don''t get cancer from being promiscuous. because cancer won''t spread to other people... and it''s nothing to joke about... my mom is dieing of cancer HIV has a stigma because it''s highest among people who practice anal sex and IV drug users... The Public, formed an opinion about what "kind of person" gets HIV... Sure HIV is spreadable by other means... But back in the 80''s when very little was known about the disease, it was already decided by a large...

A: The country with the biggest percentage of HIV infected people has been South Africa. Sub-Sahara Africa has the area of several countries also with a high infection rate. So far, no medicines cure or completely rid the entire body of the virus though in the USA, where people can afford the expensive triple drug combination, a new person found with the HIV virus can expect to live another 20 years. In poor countries, where there is no money to obtain the medicine, people will continue to die early from HIV and then AIDS. Whole governments need to pay for and provide the needed new medicines which must be developed and distributed to those in need. Most

A: The surface of the needle can be contaminated with fluids, where the virus *can* survive. Cause it''ll keep you alive. Please see the webpages for more details on Sterilization (microbiology). HIV virus lives within a living cell. Contaminated needle may contain blood cells with HIV /AIDS virus, bacteria and spores. it may not die in the time the needle is passed from one person to another- especially if there is blood on the needle Because of blood that is (liquid) left on the needle when two people share it. HIV can be transmitted thru fluids.Good Luck! because you cant share needles that have been used before,,, cuz it would have blood on it,,, HIV travels in...

A: HIV can only be spread by people who are infected with the virus. It is transmitted via sexual contact or by sharing needles and syringes with someone who is infected. In rare cases, HIV can also be spread via blood transfusion from an infected person. Mothers who are HIV positive can also pass the infection to their babies during childbirth or through breastfeeding.Source:Centers for Disease Control and prevention: HIV and Its Transmission As far as I understand yes, 1 can carry the HIV virus and not have it turn into aids, pass that virus on to someone else and that person could have the HIV passed to hiom become Aids.
