  篇一

  World AIDS Day is observed every year on December 1st.

  Do you know AIDS? AIDS is a terrible disease. Right now, it is a deadly disease and so far, it cannot be cured.There is no pill, no vaccine, no surgery to make you better. HIV and AIDS has decimated the world we live in, and things are only going to get worse.So it is called "super killer".

  At last estimate by UNAIDS, 40 million people have been infected with AIDS around the world.Every minute, five people get infected with AIDS! It is terrible, isn't?

  Do you know about this red ribbon?It is called the "AIDS Ribbon".On this day people wear red ribbons to show their support and to raise awareness. This started as a grassroots effort and there is still not one main manufacturer for the ribbons. The Red Ribbon united people to fight against AIDS.

  You won't get AIDS if you:

  work, eat and drink together with AIDS patients;

  shake hands with them or hug them;

  talk face to face with them;

  use the same toilet as them;

  swim with them.

  What do you think about AIDS? Show us your ideas.

  AIDS is the abbreviation1*** of ACQUIRED IMMUNE DEFICIENCY SYNDROME.It is a complicated illness that may involve several phases.it is caused by a virus that can be passed from person to person.AIDS impairs the human body's immune system,the system responsible for keeping off disease,and leaves the victim easily affected by various infection.

  The virus enters the bloodstream and destroys certain white blood cells,called T lymphocytes2***,which play a key role in the functioning of the immune system.The virus can also infect other types of cells in the body,including the immune-system cells knows as macrophages3***.Unlike T lymphocytes,however,macrophages are not killed by the virus.

  Most people recently infected by the AIDS virus look and feel healthy.In some people the virus may remain inactive,and these people act as carriers,remaining apparently healthy but still able to infect others.After a few years,some people may develop AIDS-related complex,or ARC.Its symptoms may include fever,fatigue4***,weight loss,skin rashes,a fungal5*** infection of the mouth known as thrush,lack of resistance to infection,and swollen lymph nodes.

  AIDS is spread by direct infection of the bloodstream with body fluids that contain the AIDS virus,particular blood and semen from an HIV-infected person.The virus is usually spread through various forms of sexual intercourse,the transfusion of virus-infected blood,or the sharing of HIV-contaminated intravenous6*** need les.

  More media coverage is being paid to the HIV/AIDS situation in China, especially after a gathering of leading officials, scientists, medical workers and activists in the field occurred in Beijing on November 10.

  By official estimates, China has 840,000 people carrying HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, and about 80,000 AIDS patients.

  Despite the fairly large groups of HIV carriers and AIDS patients, the epidemic is mostly confined to high-risk groups, such as drug users, prostitutes and users of blood products. And it has yet to spread widely in the rest of the nation.

  The Chinese Government is well aware of such perspectives, and the central and local governments have allocated 6.8 billion yuan ***US$822 billion*** to establish and improve disease prevention and control mechanisms in provinces. Each year a special fund of more than 200 million yuan ***US$24 million*** is channeled into HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment.

  Since April, free medicine to poor AIDS patients has been delivered in regions hit hardest by the virus.

  Just as the impacts of AIDS reaches social and economic fields of society, effective prevention also requires united efforts from virtually all sectors.

  Key factors needed include public education, affordable drugs, medical training for healthcare workers in hospitals and the public health system, monitoring and evaluation, care for orphans, measures to stop mother-to-child transmission, a comprehensive care framework and research into vaccines and a cure.

  None of these things can be achieved with the single hand of any institution — not health officials, not medical workers or the government.

  The fight against HIV/AIDS requires the participation of as many parties as possible.

  As former US President Bill Clinton said as a co-chair of the advisory board of International AIDS Trust, the AIDS problem is “manageable and preventable” though we must wage it on all fronts with tenuous determination, utmost patience and tactful skills.
