All those who says HIV/AIDS is not a threat or a serious public health problem dont know what is the reality, situation on ground.
Those who die because of AIDS related symptoms don"t really counted as death due to HIV/AIDS.

They die bacause of

TUBERCULOSIS
severe weakness
weight loss
prolonged fever
diarrhoea
skin infection
difficulty in eating food because of ulcers in mouth
or because of some other symptom.

Nobody count them as death because of HIV/AIDS

Poor in the country often do not get addmision in hospitals or they send home by the hospital after possible medical assistance as nothing much can be done after an extent and they die at home.

Very few AIDS patients die in the hospitals.

There is no mechanism to count how many casualities happened in a year due to HIV/AIDS.

I work with and for them, whatever i have said is my observation of last 5 years.

I can not understand why goverment is neglecting the most basic thing when it comes to HIV/AIDS "Prevention is better than cure" goverment must act now before its too late...

people sitting in the ivory tower must realize situation is getting horrific, and they realize the responsibility of state and do whatever is required to deal with the menace called HIV/AIDS.

People need help, support goverment of India must act now before its too late.....

I think it’s great that they are not getting tested. India should focus on distributing nutritious food to these poor people than worrying about HIV.

If 90 % of the HIV positive in India are poor – you are telling me that HIV have the ability to discriminate between rich and poor. Or it could be malnutrition and repeated infections (fever, flu, chickengunya) that are causing the HIV tests to be positive.

I would leave this poor people alone. They don’t need any viral drugs. They will live longer without them.

A lot of evidence now points to after all “HIV does not cause AIDS”.

1.There is no single study in the literature that conclusively proves HIV causes AIDS. http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,21306298-5006787,00.html
2.No researcher can be absolutely sure that a positive HIV test proves the existence of HIV virus in a person. In United States, here is a warning in oraquick rapid HIV test label

“Reactive result using the OraQuick® Rapid HIV-1 Antibody Test suggests the presence of anti-HIV-1 antibodies in the specimen.” – If you read it carefully you will find that it does not suggest the presence of virus itself! By the way an anti-HIV antibody is not very specific to HIV.

it somewhat is erroneous. India is definitely primary for its custom and custom. this way of relation is rarely perfect in Indian society, in fact people will throw you out of the society in the event that they emerge as attentive to.actual a brother and sister relation in India is meant to.The brother is assume to shield the sister and to not misuse her. There are communities the place the cousins can get married to one yet another yet very uncommon, it happens the place there is loss of literacy. confident there is a few circumstances which take place on the hours of darkness besides the undeniable fact that it somewhat is erroneous.
