How is your country dealing with the prevention and treatment of HIV & AIDS? Summary of Responses:
All around the world people, families and countries are suffering from this horrible disease called HIV/AIDS. As time progresses, our knowledge of the subject does too. In Canada, we have classes in schools to teach students how to protect themselves from the virus and how to prevent the spread. There are anti viral drugs for HIV that prolongs your years of living with the virus. But, this virus doesn’t only affect those of our country, but all people of all ages all over the world, but, what are they doing to prevent the spread of the diseases and how are they treating it?  In Romania they have faced the epidemic of HIV/AIDS for a very long time, although Romania is not affected with the disease as much as other countries such as Africa and Asia, they still have education on this matter. In Romania, schools have information on this epidemic to teach the students how to treat it and how to prevent the spread. The government of Romania is discussing about and supervising the spread of HIV and AIDS in their country. In Romania they have centers that deal with people who are HIV positive. They have free treatment for all who need it. To slow the spread of the disease thoughout the body, Romania uses a drug called Aptiva’s. This treatment is very good and is known to doctors in the country.  In Zambia HIV/AIDS is as alarming as it is in other countries. It is an epidemic. Zambia’s government have helped prevent the spread if the disease. Zambia has a treatment for this disease called ARVS’s. Churches and the government have campaigned over this epidemic though the country.  In Canada, though the years we have learned about HIV/AIDS though school and governments. In Romania they have centers that treat people with the disease of HIV/AIDS. They also have classes in schools to teach the future Romania how the disease is transmitted and how to prevent it. In Zambia their government and churches have watched the progress of the epidemic because of their help.
