HIV/AIDS is without doubt the worst epidemic to hit humankind since the Black Death. As of 2004 an estimated 40 million people were living with the disease, and about 20 million had died. Despite rapid scientific advances there is still no cure and the drugs are expensive and toxic. In the developing world, especially in parts of Africa, life expectancy has plummeted to below 35 years, causing a serious decline in economic growth, a sharp increase in orphans, and the imminent collapse of health care systems. The news is not all bleak though. There have been unprecedented breakthroughs in understanding diseases and developing drugs. Because the disease is so closely linked to sexual activity and drug use, the need to know and change behavior has caused us to re-evaluate what it means to be human and how we should operate in the globalizing world. This Very Small Introduction tackles the knowledge, the international and local politics, the fascinating demographics, and the devastating consequences of the disease, and suggests how we must respond.

Rash in Child with HIV (1)

This is the most common rash we see in children with HIV at our hospital. I reckon it’s "puritic papular eruption" or PPE, if that still means anything. Observations?

When will the cure for HIV in Africa be proven. People are dying everyday in hundreds?
This is because HIV/ AIDS is a scourge that must be stopped previous to Africa is wiped off the surface of the earth. Inspite the campaign on HIV / AIDS the sciurge is still outrageous, people in the most premitive parts of Africa does not know and they that do, do not judge it is right that HIV is real. Besides the preventive or treatment rather which is not even the cure is not reaching the real people. The infection rate is far beyond the treatment rate. They are treating two while fifteen is contacting it.
