. What the film in its entirety is trying to show is that HIV and AIDS does not have to be a death sentence, that there is so much hope, and given the sheer wealth of this world, people have a right to treatment, to education, to protection and dignity. The film was produced by Alison Lawton and Tim Hardy. Tim and I (Pete McCormack) co-directed it. I wrote the narration, which Pierce Brosnan so generously narrated. … HIV AIDS Africa Stephen Lewis Romeo Dallaire ARVs pete mccormack Pierce …

Black ppl need to wake the FUCK UP and stop believing every damn thing white ppl tell them. There is no fuckin epicdemic in Africa. I find it fuckin strange that so-called HIV is ramped in Africa & SEA but not in Europe.

The people in this video (Like the little girl) are going to be the ones that spend their afterlife in heaven. The people that are leaving stupid comments are the ones that are going to burn in hell. It is what it is.

It seems that the selective pressure of HIV deaths will create an Africa that is less sexually active than in the past. This natural selection may result in an aggregate reduction of the African sex drive.

So they suffer for our sake? Isn’t that messed up?

Over population is a myth anyway. Look at Wyoming, only about 530,000 live there.

Excellent! How kind you are. You are even better than those million or billionaires who do nothing but just chasing for money.

I completely agree with u. All these racist and idiotic “medical” comments just disgust me. All u people should have some compassion or at least educate urselves about whats really happening.

Wtf, people? Do you know anything?! With half of you leaving *completely* racist and stereotypical comments, and the others using false science! Just because anyone is black means nothing about how they have intercourse, so stop with those comments!
“Blacks are the missing link,” My ass! That theory has been disproved so many times. The reason so many Africans get HIV is they are uneducated. And it sounds like all of you are too, with your ideas of mosquitoes and black sexual intercourse!

Make it good this time.

So they say. Hey, did you also know its hard to get it thru regular intercourse too? Then again, with those nasty fucking niggers having all kinds of sores all over their dicks, and shoving up any ass thats available its easy to see why theyre all getting AIDS.

I dont want to burst your bubble, but guess what….Racism is not popular.
It should be as its totally obvious man evolved from their simian ancestors.
Farther into harsher climates made the white man adapt.
Blacks are a missing link.

If you’re going to use science, at least try to sound intelligent. Don’t give up so easily.

well if the mosquito is not contaminated with HIV then DUH, ovbiously you aren’t going to get it. But it may be possible to get it if the mosquito is carrying HIV postive blood.

Doctors and other people told me this is impossible to get HIV from killing as mosquito on a wound that is on your body.

Yes. This is sad, but it all has to do with the laws of evolution and equity between nature, god, and people.

What about if in a room there is a mosqito that just has drunk blood from a person, who was infected with HIV and another person, who does not know about the disease kills the mosqito.Let’s say the blood gets out of of a well fed mosqito and it gets lets say on my arm where I can have a rubbed place or evenwound place. Can I get the virus like this?
