Today is World AIDS Day!
Monday, December 1, 2008
Hi today is world aids day so i want to blog about aids today....
But many person hear a AIDS word they will ran away very fast!
But aids is NOT a spread disease!
Here's the prove:
AIDS / HIV
What are HIV and AIDS? HIV stands for the Human Immunodeficiency Virus. AIDS, short for ‘Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome’, is the final and most serious stage of HIV. A person infected with HIV can take up to 10 years to develop AIDS.
How is HIV transmitted?HIV is transmitted by:
unprotected sexual intercourse with an infected person
the sharing of HIV-tainted needles and instruments
from a mother to her baby, while pregnant, at birth, or through breastfeeding
receiving infected blood and blood products (e.g. organs, plasma).
HIV is NOT spread by casual contact with infected persons, such as hugging and touching. Neither can it be transmitted through contact with objects such as dishes or toilet seats, or by mosquitoes. HIV is not transmitted to a person who donates blood.

I hope aids patients have a happy future ahead!
