Hey,you all.this is the thread for all issues relating to HIV/AIDS.We cant over look this.So many people are living with this viruses.is there a cure to it,and how can we stop its spread.it really a serious issue.am inviting everyone.

She was beautiful,elegant and attractive.her name was Anita,We were in the class those days in secondary schools.All the boys in the class were trying to get her.But she would never listen,she was God fearing too.She kept her status as a beautiful God fearing girl till we graduated ,not until b/4 thns went sour.

One day,on her way to school,a car hit her,the driver was a handsome young man,and look very humble,as he stepped out of the car to check if he inflict injury on her severely.Though nothn serious happened to her,but they get talking and he drove her to school that day.Fred and anita became good friends,Fred was a 200 level geology student in unilag,Anita never suspected Fred to be harmful,as he lavish her with gifts and kind gestures.

The friendship of anita and fred grew and multiply.Fred never in any day ask anita for sex or portary any trait or behavioural pattern that sends negative signal to anita.Anita was really at home with fred.She started visitin fred at his hostel.It came to pass when fred invited anita to somewhere,a friends house on the pretence that they are goin for visiting,as fred was always a good and gentle lad,he succeeded in convincing anita.

To caught a long story short,Fred raped anita in his friends house,he did not only disflower her,he gave her HIV.She gat to know this a month after the incident.Though fred was arrested and jailed,but the injury he had inflicted on anita was far too much. anita lives with the viruse and she becanme an anti AIds campaigner.

I got to hear her story from her,she is a good friend but everyday,she was growing weaker and weaker,and early 2006,she died.
Quite sad,isnt it? Yes my friends AIDS is real,Abstinence is the word.

HIV/AIDS cant only be spread by sex alone,any contact with body fluid of an HIV/AIDS patients will get u infected.that brings me to the question,can HIV/AIDS be spread through kissing?

Mouth to mouth kissing involves the sharing of salivary juice.The juice in our mouth is alkaline in nature,an HIV does not strives well in an alkaline medium,according to scientist,it will take a glass full of salivary juice b/4 it can be infected on someone else.

another way,HIV can be transmitted is through cuts.a clipper used in barbin an infected person if it had a cut on that person and is not sterilized when used to barb another and also havin a cut,that person would be infected.it also applies to manicures and pedicures. with surgical instruments that is not sterilized,one just have to be careful.
