*Health Issues>>>STDs issues>>>Why is Aids becoming the primary killer among females? |
Issue AIDS is currently the sixth-leading cause of death for all American women. Most women don't even know they have HIV until they get an opportunistic infection, and then they've got full blown AIDS. I've read other medical reports stating that 50% of new cases are females between 13 - 24 years old. Is this going to be females #1 cause of death in 10 - 20 years. http://health.discovery.com/centers/wome... http://health.discovery.com/centers/wome... Best Tip I think one reason is because some women hesitate to ask their partner to wear a condom. With condom use, HIV levels will drop. Take control of your lives, ladies! Bring the condom yourself. Tell him "NO" unless he uses it. Others LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND LACK OF PROTECTION !!! The reason for this is because sometimes, their partner does not want the female to know about his STD's, so he doesn't tell her. Once he doesn't tell her and has an affair, without protection, then the STD is spread into the females body. No Deaths Due to AIDS In 2004, the estimated number of deaths of persons with AIDS was 15,798, including 15,737 adults and adolescents, and 61 children under age 13. The cumulative estimated number of deaths of persons with AIDS through 2004 is 529,113, including 523,598 adults and adolescents, and 5,515 children under age 13. |
