People with HIV/AIDS are living much longer due to treatment, but if they do not avoid "HIV spreading behavior" (which according to reports they often do not) what will stop the spread? How long can we afford to treat, house and support them as the numbers escalate?

The only thing I can say is better education. If the GOV stops lying to us and we can be more honest to the people who dont have it and give them a real idea of the number that do, this would help. People need honest answers even of they are scarey. Kids need to learn to control desire, but they are so implusive, it makes it hard, and I don't think they get it. We need to see more kids on TV and at schools talking about HIV/Aids, I think that makes more of an impact and it should be mandatory that in EVERY SCHOOL in the USA grades 4 and up have to meet other kids with HIV. I dont think kids are ever to young to learn about STD's. The earlier they learn the more aware they are. As far as treatment and long term care, all we can do is be there for them and if we weren't spending billions to end life over seas, we could invest it in saving lives here at home.

Hi there, Remember, all news papers are biased. Period. Second, please do not generalize. Not everyone who is HIV+ engages in "HIV spreading behaviour". There are many HIV+ people who do have a moral conscious and do not willingly choose to infect unwilling people. How to stop the spread? We need more education regarding prevention as well as education that tears down the walls of stigma and shame that are often associated with being HIV+. There are also the stigmas associated with condom use, even such silly nonsense as real men do not use condoms. Plain and simple, if you are having sex and are not in a committed monagmous relationship where both partners have tested for hiv, then it should be wrapped. People should not even have to think twice otherwise. But people don't and the reasons why are as varried as the people themselves. Unless you want to psychoanalyse every person who has sex regarding their sexual practices and preferences, maybe then we will have a better understanding as to why people choose not to use protection. Cheers.

Would you have the TV people be brave enough to say that parents need to teach children about condoms? Most parents don't even get around to teaching their children anything about sex that the child hasn't already picked up on (whether right or wrong). Sex education is something a student can be left out of if the parent says so. Without sex education, more and more people WILL become infected and more people WILL die. More babies will be born with HIV, because people are not aware that the baby need not be, if delivered correctly.......and not breast fed by an HIV pos mother. Until we can all speak of HIV OUTLOUD, amongst ourselves, to our children, and in our schools...........the danger will remain. As far as housing and supporting those with HIV/AIDS, I haven't seen this going on. My son has HIV and lives with me. Did you think he was getting govt. money? He's not. I see people who are on drugs, having never worked a day in their lives, receiving disability checks every month. They are ON disability because they are ON drugs. That's a circle that goes 'round and 'round.
