How many people have hiv in america? answers (189)

A: hiv/AIDS had killed more than half a million people since it first appeared in the United States. More than one million persons had been living with hiv in America, with about 20% of these people not even aware of their deadly infection. This poses higher risk for further transmission of hiv to others. Hence, hiv care and hiv funding need very high priority. Unfortunately, a comprehensive plan on hiv care had been lacking in the United States Thousands of American citizens do not have adequate health insurance and they do not have...

A: proboably a doctor that gave it to their patients via injection maybe in Luckenbach Texas There are lots of answers and opinions to this question My OPINION is That hiv was going to be used as a weapon much like anthrax.I think it was tested on Monkey''s with the scientist not realizing how contagious and devastating it would be. i dont know how much truth is in it...but i do remember there being talk about it starting in south africa with people having sex with animals..cant remember whether it was a pig or monkey... We know nothing of its where abouts or roots. This disease started before we were even aware of it. It caught us all by surprise. The animal theory is...

A: what the heck It''s called HUMAN Immunodeficiency Virus for a reason. But maybe dogs got their own version? Cats can get FIV (NOT hiv) and according to a couple sites, there is a version for dogs as well... a few other sites said there were still no proven cases of a canine version of hiv, but they seemed to be older so... Dog, cats, and humans CANNOT pass any form of hiv between them (only certain moneys can give hiv to humans). PaulKing above is full of sh*t... these diseases are quite real. Google "canine hiv" for more info and some of those sites I mentioned... Ed, RN It only makes sense that any animal could be infected with

A: no I don''t think she has to tell the patients anything but she has to tell her employer...What otherwise is the purpose for health care workers to get injections againts hepatitis, tentanus injections, against flu, and a full physical check up... I believe if the nurse is definitely hiv positive she should not be working with sick people because chances are she will spread her disease...in a place where the immune system of all those people is weakened she should be allowed to work. for the simple reason.. nurses can get injured they wear gloves but the gloves can have hole, patients often have open wounds so it''s too dangerous for an hiv...

A: Be overly physical especially if this physical contact is shuned. Try to lacerate your self in certain places aswell, palms for example. Thus spreading the disease to the shunner. They will then have no reason to distance themselves from you. You could just throw your arm at them. Or is that leprecy? Get re-tested. many who do get a different result. hiv can be reversed with a Raw Vegan Diet in about 3 months. http://www.rawfoodinfo.com/pictures/beforeafters_main.html http://alissacohen.com/before.html http://www.welikeitraw.com/rawfood/before_after/index.html http://www.naturalhealthway.com/photos/photos.html http://rawguru.com/rawgurus.html http://www.fromsadtoraw.com/RawInProgressPictures.htm Unfortunately, so

A: No hiv/AIDS is not a myth but there are lots of myths about it. Like for example the idea that if you are not a part of the high risk groups that you are likely to get it. The truth is that a woman having vaginal sex has a 1 in 1000 chance of getting hiv from having sex with a hiv infected male. Also 1/1000th of one percent of the U.S. heterosexual population outside of specific risk groups are affected each year compared to 20 to 25 percent with homosexual males. In 1993 a grand total of 17 out of more than 30,000 cases of AIDS in New York City were men who claim their only risk factor is sex with a woman. So with that said why would we require manditary tests? it would be a huge expense and as has been pointed out...

A: There are meds to take for the symptoms of hiv/AIDS to help control the other problems that could come from the immune deficiencies. But other than taking something to prevent the disease, I think that I heard something on Good Morning America but it still has about to have clinical trials and then be approved by the FDA. And, that could take years. there is no cure and the people who say there is but its politics holding it back are full of **** and dont know anything about medicine. most of the drugs are generic anymore so the drug companies arent making any money off of treating people. viral diseases are very hard to treat because viruses are simple and too biochemically similar to...

A: how could you demonstrate this? hey dint feel bad even the guy from subway has aids. Jerrod oh wait he has Aides like physical trainer and dietitian Most people who get infected with AIDS will not know they have it. The only way to tell is through a blood test and if you ain''t tested then you don''t know. It''s not like the clap where it burns when you urinate or you have a nasty discharge coming out the end of your dick. So I would say the figure is higher then just 90% See, I did read and understand your question. coorection, lots of people with hiv infection do not know but AIDS is a full blown syndrome and a huge number knows, yes...

A: Think about it. how can you give someone something you don''t have. Man, no, you just answered your own question. For a person to contract a virus there has to be exposure. No exposure to hiv, so no. Do you know how viruses spread? if neither one of them has been exposed to hiv then no, I think you answered your own question Well getting aids from sexula contact can only happen when one of the partners actually have aids...otherwise its absolutely safe.... anyways i shall leave u an article about the ways of contracting aids...it will help you... The three main transmission routes of hiv are sexual contact, exposure...

A: Because in the USA, corporate executives own the politicians and control the government. And giving universal health care to the proletariat isn’t cost effective. It’s cheaper to lay them off in hard times and let them die if they don’t have the means to pay for medical care on their own.. Doesn’t Canada have a much higher tax rate and/or cost for things? (Like why does a book or magazine have a significant difference in cost difference displayed for the Canadian price?. I’m just throwing an idea out here. I don’t know much about Canada’s systems.. And @HungryGuy is right. . . unless we start getting leadership that isn’t part of the status quo, no changes will be made to benefit US!. people...
