AIDS is becoming more and more dangerous disease comparing with other disease. (eg. Cancer, hepatitis A-B, diabetes, viral infection , gynecological condition etc). There are many cases related with the AIDS patients, which are growing day-by-day.
Now the Question is that, why the growth of AIDS disease increasing more?. Is there any thing wrong, from which we are lacking behind, or most people rejecting and discriminating the AIDS in front of the family or they don’t want to discussed the topic of ‘AIDS’, or the sufficient education are not provided or we are just taking for granted?
AIDS stand for- Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS was first identified in the early 1980, an unprecedented number of people have been affected by the global AIDS. Since the first cases of AIDS were identified in 1981, more than 25 million people have died from AIDS. Today, there are an estimate 33.4 million people living with HIV and AIDS and each year around two million people die from AIDS related illness.
HIV is a virus that gradually attacks immune system cells. The body becomes more vulnerable to infections, which it will have difficulty in fighting off. It is at the point of very advanced HIV infection that a person is said to have AIDS. It can be years before HIV has damaged the immune system enough for AIDS to develop.A person is diagnosed with AIDS when they have developed an AIDS related condition or symptom, called an opportunistic infection, or an AIDS related cancer. The infections are called ‘opportunistic’ because they take advantage of the opportunity offered by a weakened immune system.Although there is no cure for AIDS, HIV infection can be prevented, and those living with HIV can take antiretroviral drugs to delay the onset of AIDS. However, in many countries across the world access to prevention and treatment services is limited. Global leaders have pledged to work towards universal access to HIV treatment, prevention and care, so that millions of deaths can be averted.
