(m)\n\nImmediate causes\nThe immediate causes of the epidemic are linked to HIV´s modes of transmission. These include unprotected penetrative se; transmission from mother to child before, during or after birth; and transmission through transfusions and the sharing of blood or blood products.\n\nUnderlying causes include societal denial and weak political commitment; poverty and social inequality; gender divisions; population movement as a result of famine, war and other causes; human rights abuse; and lack of dialogue about sex and sexuality. All of these make it likely that infection continues to spread.\n\nYoung people may be especially vulnerable to infection. They may not receive appropriate kinds of sex and personal relationship education. They may lack access to relevant social support including youth friendly counselling and sexual health services. Young women (and some young men) may be at particular risk through involvement in sex work and prostitution. The tendency for older and more sexually experienced men to prefer younger sexual partners also enhances their vulnerability.\n\nImmediate effects\nHIV and AIDS have serious and immediate effects within the family and household. As parents and young people are affected, household income may fall. Additional costs of healthcare, funerals and transport to clinics and hospital may have to be met. While many households develop new ways of coping, other are severely stressed. The changing balance of labour within the home may encourage less labour intensive and less nutritious crops to be grown. Widows and elderly people may lack financial and moral support when, as the sole adult within the family, they have to take on added responsibilities for the care of children and young people.\n\nIn order to help families cope, children, and especially girls, may be kept away from school. Yong people who are orphaned as a result of AIDS may face new risks. They may lack access to a stable and secure social network of adults and may be vulnerable to child labour, exploitation, prostitution and sexual abuse.\n\nThe effects of HIV and AIDS on the health sector can be dramatic. As the demand for health services rises, the capacity of the health care system to respond may diminish. Loss of staff through HIV-related illness and death may compound the difficulties facing already over-crowded hospitals and clinics. While new and potentially more effective drugs have been found, these remain out of reach of all but the richest people in the majority of developing countries.\n\nLonger-term effects\nIn the longer-term, HIV and AIDS will have a profound demographic impact. In the most seriously affected countries, life expectancy has already been reduced and past gains in infant mortality are being eroded and even reversed.\n\nAt the macro-economic level, HIV and AIDS can cause a decline in aggregate savings and investment, reduce profits and incentives for business to invest, and lead to a long-term decline in productivity and consumption.\n\nIn time, the epidemic will have a serious impact on all sectors of society. Agriculture is likely to be affected by a shift from long-term planning to short-term survival. Al employment sectors will suffer, especially those with a highly mobile workforce such as the transport industry, the armed forces, seasonal farm labour and construction work. The most vulnerable sectors of the economy are those heavily dependent on highly educated and experienced staff in short supply. These include banking and commerce, universities and schools, government and public services.\n\nAny weakening of the education system will make it more difficult for young people to receive information about AIDS before they become sexually active. A decline in the quantity and quality of education is likely to take place as teachers become ill and die. This has serious consequences for future economic development and growth.\n\nThe inter-generational consequences of HIV and AIDS are

no because bacteria and viruses are adapting too, and people can't come up with vaccines that quickly to combat change - bird flu is an example.  Humans will gradually evolve too, at least in their habits if not anything else, but this will be a very long process.\n\nLooking at the diversity of the Human Race, there is a large gene pool so they to have the capability to evolve.

Sometimes a viral infection like the flu can develop into a secondary bacterial infection such as sinusitis and ear infection.\n\nThe first doctor's diagnosis was probably right at the time and the signs that you were developing an infection that needs antibiotic treatment would only develop 3-5 days after the start of your illness.

religeons evolve, like species. At first you have primitive people, tens of thousands of years ago, wondering how they got there, and thanking the clouds for rain. And the infection keeps on going.

Le meilleur moyen est de développer le football en Afrique. Il faut mettre en place de solides infrastructures et permettre aux jeunes de d'abord jouer dans leur pays un petit moment puis éventuellement de venir tenter l'aventure en Europe. Donc rendre plus compétitifs les équipes nationales africaines et dynamiser leur économie.

Good sanitation goes hand in hand with good health.  If you limit where vectors live, breed and feed, you limit your family's chances of being infected by them.

You might begin with a story about President Franklin D. Roosevelt .There is a brief story on the following website about when he contracted polio. It demonstrates how quickly the disease can affect a person's life. \nhttp://www.cloudnet.com/~edrbsass/fdrlessons.htm\nIf you can use any visuals - photos downloaded of iron lungs, metal braces etc. might also get the audience's attention. The following website may be useful. http://americanhistory.si.edu/polio/howpolio/rehab.htm\nGood luck.

No one knows for certain just who had the first case of AIDS.  However, there are descriptions of patients who have immuno-deficiency illnesses as early as 1917; these immunodeficiency illnesses may have been early cases of AIDS.  These cases were in the jungle areas of Uganda.  \n\nThe origin of AIDS is unknown, but from research it is believed to be a crossover disease from apes.  In the apes it may have been a minor illness like a cold, but crossover diseases are much more dangerous when they move to another species -- the new species has not adapted and developed partial immunities to the disease.  \n\nThere is no cure for AIDS and never has been.  The disease works by causing the body's own cells to attack itself and then using the body's own energy to create more viruses.  This is very difficult to fight, because any medicine has to be very specific to fight the virus within the cell without hurting the cells.  There are medicines that attempt to keep the viruses from being created; these can help the victim to recover a little but cannot eliminate the virus entirely.  There is not cure.\n\nIt became widely spread because of the trade ships.  In all truthfulness, the sailors of the trade ships helped the spread the disease.  This is why you will find it in its highest concentration along the coasts of the Indian Ocean.

History books don't go back that far!\nThe disease evolved alongside humans.

There was a WHO report on tropical diseases in 2004 that might be helpful:\n\n\nTropical disease death statistics by worldwide region: \n\nAbout 56,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in Africa 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 16,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in The Americas 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 36,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in South East Asia 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 15,000 deaths from Tropical diseases in Eastern Mediterranean 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004) \n\nAbout 5,000 deaths in Western Pacific 2002 (The World Health Report, WHO, 2004)\n\n\nAlso, here are some statistics on yaws in southeast asia from the WHO web site:\n\nAbout 5,000 cases are reported annually, 4,000 in Indonesia, 1,000 in Timor-Leste and a few cases in India.\n\nThere is a lot on yaws on the WHO web site. I am not sure if it lists deaths due to yaws anywhere, however. What if you contacted the WHO and asked?\n\n----------------\n\nHere is another little bit of information from another site:\n\n"In 7157 West Indian cases treated in various hospitals there were only 185 deaths, a mortality of 25.8 per thousand (Nicholls)."\n\nfrom third reference.\n\n--------------------\n\nIn the early 50s, there were 25-100 million cases per year, world wide (from 4th reference).\n\n------------------------\n\nIndonesia reported 11414 cases of yaws in 1982 (5th reference)\n\n-----------------------\n\nthere were 17609 cases of yaws reported in the solomon islands in 2001 (6th reference)\n\n-----------------\n\nI am not sure if this is on the internet, to be honest. Or if it is, it might be in an obscure place.

There were as many diseases in the past as we have today. The only difference is that we did not know they existed and people just died younger.
