AIDS
AIDS(Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is a deadly
disease for which there is no cure. This disease was first
recognized in the mid 1980's. The cause of AIDS is the HIV
virus, and is most commonly spread by venereal routes or exposure
to contaminated blood or blood products. This disease weakens
the body's immune system, allowing other diseases to occur. The
most common treatments available for this virus are the drugs
called AZT, DDI, and DDC which interfere with HIV'S ability to
reproduce itself. These are the only known ways to slow down the
production of the virus.
This virus is spread through the exchange of body fluids
{semen, blood, and blood products} this virus can stay in the
body for as long as a decade with no symptoms. People who have
AIDS have to go through a lot of complications and anxiety.The
most common anxiety is that they have to go through their life
knowing that they are going to die from this disease, another is
the pain and suffering they know they will have to go through.
