preventing unwanted "friends".....
The virus known as aids and HIV is infecting many and especially the youth of out nation more and more. It has become an epidemic and is going down due to awareness and many organizations speaking out in the favor of having safe sex. Not only does it prevent disease it also prevents unexpected pregnancy. It is 99.9% affective and is the best way to go if you choose to have premerital sex. it is a proven fact taht by the age of 25 1 out of every 3 adults who are sexually active have an STD or a sexually transmitted disease. Just recently on the show the real world on MTV they promoted a movie called "Pedro". This movie was about the first gay male who was HIV positive on television and shows how he made a difference by speaking out and continuing to be on the show. It promots safe sex and always to use a condom to be safe. This does not only apply to the Gay community but it applys to society as a whole. When you speak up about safe sex and you reach one person, that person can reach another and another and it can become a chain reaction. Before you can help anyone you have to apply this to yourself and the people around you. We can all make a difference , make the right choice, use protection everytime.

Yes I agree HIV is a world problem and is spreading as we speak. It is a disease that can only be prevented not stopped because when you get it theres a very high chance that you will not defeat it. It takes over all your cells and before you know it, it has reached a second stage known as AIDS. Having safe sex is the number one important factor to preventing HIV and as rico said people have to make a voice about it, even in your community. I also agree that voicing your condition of HIV can make a change like in that movie "pedro" which is very important to let people know so it doesn't spread.
