Sometimes when I read the articles on HIV I get irritated. The virus has been well publicized since the 1980's, yet some people still act like it's something new & mysterious. It's not.
Yet again & again, I see articles having to explain how the virus is transmitted. Publications over the need for education, testing & treatment. This isn't reiteration, these articles are being written like it's the 1st time the info has been available.
Things we've known qt least since the 1990's"
- HIV is a virus, not a divine act
- We understand how the virus is passed
- We understand the need for testing
- We understand the need for education
- We understand the need for treatment
- We understand the need for safer sex practices
Still with all of that known for over 20 years, some people act like it's earth shattering news. I can have sympathy for those who for whatever reason have been unable to keep HIV out of their lives. But, unless you live under a rock in the most remote part of the world, you should most likely know these things by now.
It's well past time for people just to get with the program.
Cya...
