Here are some of the methods to prevent the spread of HIV.
1. Use a new condom every time you have sex.
2. Consider the drug Truvada
3. Use a clean needle for every injection you make.
4. If you're pregnant, get medical care right away
This is to prevent the HIV from being passed to the foetus.
5. Sexual abstinence
Sexual abstinence is a self-enforced restraint from indulging in sexual activities for a period of time.
There are of course more methods available but these are just the few that most people are aware of.
Most importantly, providing sex education to teens especially those between the age of 13 to 21 will raise their awareness to the dire consequences of having unsafe sex.
Simple and straightforward! Your blog is easy to understand! Maybe because we are familiar with the topic, but this helped me understand much better! Especially about the importance of using several drugs at the same time! Great job!

Your blog is very well designed and I also learned how HIV can lead to diabetes-my project topic! New and developing treatments for HIV apart from HAART had been developed as highlighted by you and I thought that is something new for us. -Asaph
ReplyDeleteNice and neat!
ReplyDeleteI have to ask though, how will the newborn child of the mother who possesses the HIV be affected by the virus?

Simple & straightforward :) Where did HIV originate from actually? I've watched a show where the first case was actually not realized until revisited and it was a boy who had it. How did the disease emerge only recently? There have been conspiracies where people believe that scientists are creating such deadly viruses to control the world's population.
