UN: SA has highest number with Aids

"While there is evidence of a significant decline in the national HIV prevalence in Zimbabwe, the epidemics in most of the rest of the subregion have either reached or are approaching a plateau," says the report.

yes because they all live in SA now
 
Do they actually believe the numbers coming out of Zimbabwe?

Bob would want things to look better than they are there. HIV/AIDS included.
 
If you ever find yourself needing an example of "ignorance kills" then look no further. Manto Tshabalala-Msimang needs to be tried for crimes against humanity along with her inept leaders.

I agree. What are "our leaders" doing for this country when they run around telling everyone that beetroot and garlic is a cure, and taking showers also helps prevent the transmission of the virus
 
FFS, why can't people just use a bloody condom? It's not like they are difficult to find! Hell they even come in different flavours!

Amazing how many black people in SA deny the existence of HIV/Aids.... don't these mothers of fathers realise that their ignorance and STUPIDITY is killing their children? Some of these idiots are convinced that Aids is a 'white man's lie'..... as they sit by and watch their children die (from 'tb', from 'respiratory failure', from 'pneumonia', from 'flu').

Not to turn this into a race discussion, but you brought it up, do you have any proof to back up your sweeping statement?
 
You know its just a matter of time till the virus mutates and becomes airborne!! :eek: :eek:
Might even become more deadly! Caught by breathing the air and dieing with in months or even days!! :eek: :sick:

Where do you think will be the breeding ground for the virus to incubate and mutate?? SA of cuz! where it roams free just like every other criminal out there!

Geez I hate this place! But i love it aswell its my home! :( :(

There are idiots everywhere in every race. We even had our very own resident idiot who denied the existence of Aids on this forum.
 
What's the average life expectancy of someone with AIDS?

In about 10 years there will be 5 million fewer people in this country. Break out the champagne!

With the right medication, a person with HIV could live a decent life, however once it progresses to AIDS then you have to take care not to contract the opportunistic infections, like TB, which end up killing you becuase your body is utterly defenseless.

I'm stunned someone could be so disgustingly callous. :mad:

You have to look at the numbers here. Ignore the fact that we're talking about human beings here and just focus on the fact that this disease is helping to decrease the overpopulation.

I know this might be a touchy subject, but the world is grossly overpopulated. Diseases are nature's way of restoring the balance.

You are basing your assumption on there be being no more new infections, which is IMO the real problem.

As long as people refuse to either condomise, be faithful to each other in a relationship if they don't use a condom, or abstain from sex altogether, you will always have this desease to deal with.

Are you going to be popping that cork when a family member receives tainted blood after an accident? Or if your partner has an affair and passes the disease on to you? Probably easier focusing on the faceless 5 million isnt it.

Celebrating the death of millions might come easy to you but I like to believe the rest of us are a bit more civilised.
 
And it doesn't help matters that there are brainless corrupt SABS officials letting defective condoms be distributed to the public. To top it off, the condoms weren't even disposed of properly and ended up in the open in some township. :rolleyes:
