HIV INFECTION
According to studies anyone can get HIV but you can take steps to protect yourself from getting infected with HIV.people can prevent spread of HIV in the community by getting tested and knowing their partners status,awareness should also be created to educate people on importantces of proper use of condoms and warn people on re-use of condoms from anal to viginal or using it more than ones.
As people infected with STD are at higher risk of getting infected with HIV they should be tested and treated for stds.incase of pregnancy the mother should start medical care right away to prevent transmitting to the child during birth,Labour or even breastfeeding.people should be educated on less practice of high risk sex
Communities should encourage male circumcision practices as circumcised male are at low risk of getting infected with HIV. People should be open minded and honest with their partners by telling them if they are infected with HIV. By Naomi ngata
Even if an STD infected person gets treated he/she will be infected with HIV because anyone who is currently having an STD or who has a history of STD is at a high risk of being infected. They should abstain from sex or the married ones should be faithful to one another.
ReplyDeleteAnyone can get infected by HIV. those married should remain faithfull, those currently having STD or either have the history of STD totally abstain from sex, and anyone else too should abtain to prevent the spread of HIV
ReplyDeleteDifferent ways of transmission of HIV/AIDS has being discussed and i think each person is aware of it as a dangerous disease.people should abstain from sex mostly the youths and incase of ..condoms should be used,the married should remain faithful and the government should continue educating people on Hiv/Aids on preventation by Christine
ReplyDeleteI agree but lets talk in the real sense .In this generation people love having sex ,it is not a surprise to get a young girl aged 12 years old not virgin or below am not saying this to offend anyone but look at our generation ,the media and all sorts of movies ,they somehow encourage young people to engage into sexual relationship .The only solution (but not the only one) is to encourage people to use condoms and to totally abstain.
DeleteBeing in a ditigal generation means nothing ,,,I think peer influence/pressure is the being problem ..but self principles matters alot i support youths should totally abstain from sex because sex before marriage is against God's commandments
DeletePeople infected with STDs should not only be tested and treated for STDs but also HIV. Reason being one might have had a history of STDs therefore very much prone to have been infected with HIV.
ReplyDeleteThe community should not only encourage male circumcision but also, break the norm of using the same blade. Let them be educated on the importance of using a new blade per individual

I think using condoms is not a perfect way to prevent Hiv infection to most of us..we can reduce Hiv when unmarried people abstain from sex totally and the married being faithful to their partners...BENSON WANJOHI
ReplyDeleteIf a person has a history of STIs, he/she should be careful since they are at high risk of getting hiv. Also pregnant women should be tested to avoid transmitting the disease to the baby if they are hiv+. The young people should abstain if they are not married, one cannot die due to lack of sex, or better use condoms
ReplyDeleteProtection is the key:
ReplyDeleteAlways use condom and avoid intoxication
From drugs as you will be more likely to
engage in unsafe sexual behaviour
Not many people eho go through Circumsion get infected but only if the objects are shared among them and most likely shared with those who are infected. By: Samia
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, I think people are aware about the transmission modes of HIV/AIDS, so they should make use of the protection so as to protect themselves from getting infected with HIV.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion i don't support what you said about male circumcision may reduce chances of those circumcised to be infected which is just but a fact and shouldnt be supported.for either a person is curcumcised or not should take care buy using protections and preventions from getting infected by HIV/AIDs
ReplyDeleteWe should try to be honest to each other if your are infected with the virus should not transmit to other people and with that we will reduce transmission of the virus from person to another

ReplyDeleteI conquer with you but I think there is more to talk about in regard to HIV infection... In your document you are stating of research shows......... I think it would have been better if you attached references of your study materials that we can also get a wide overview on the topic

HIV is prevetable.This times,people are much aware about the causes of HIV and they can now prevent themselves against getting the disease. Those who can still get it i think it's by their choose since they ignore to use the preventive measures eg the use of condoms. Naomi
ReplyDeleteI agree anybody can be infected however precaution should be taken when int contact with public including toilets.for the young at heart please abstain ad using a codom cannot prevent you.ABSTAIN Irene muthoni
ReplyDeleteThe biggest mistake people make is to ignore the warnings and sadly that's what our generation are good at...
ReplyDeleteThey will always find reasons as to not abstain... Moving from one relationship to another and also having multiple partners...
I think that only youth can communicate to youth that's how the message of hiv prevention should be passed... By youth to youth

if you use condom effectively every time you have sex it can prevent many things like Pregnancy and STD'S
ReplyDeleteAgree with you but that one of knowing your partner status not all people knows their partner status, there are some partners who they know they are infected but the keep the result by themselves.how can they be helped?
ReplyDeleteSex workers are among the key population most affected by HIV and STIs since the epidemic. Effective interventions targeting sex workers are important components of comprehensive HIV and STIs prevention strategies.
ReplyDeleteThe solution is to either stay faithful to your partner or people should totally abstain having sex cause everyone is aware about the disease according the generation that we are living in
ReplyDeleteHIV is the virus that causes AIDS which enters the body through mucus membrane or through broken skin once inside the body the virus attacks body defense cells eventually killing them.The virus targets white blood cells the Tcells of body immune system and body fluids contain Tcells .The concentration of HIV is high in blood semen and varginal secretion where number of defense cells have been killed the body lacks protection aganaist common infections
ReplyDeleteThe best way u can avoid disease is when u abstain from sex if u are not married and the marriage once should be faithful to their partners.

ReplyDeleteHIV prevention is not just about following rules..its about knowing who you are ,what you believe,and when to act in order to protect yourself and others from infection.it requires an informed holistic approach one which enables you to do more than just roll the dice,but to understand the very dynamics of infection and ways to prevent it from happening.......by Immaculate
ReplyDeleteAccording to me i think modes of HIV/AIDS transmission have discussed and many people are aware about this,so to avoid infected one should know her/his HIV status,this will reduce infection of this disease.Secondly it si good for youths to abstain and married ones to be faithful to their partners.BY FAITH
ReplyDeleteTraditional circumcision as a factor should be dealt out with to reduce the spread of Hiv to young boys since traditionally this people use one knife to circumsize all those boys hence we need to educate them on this effect Faiza
ReplyDeleteAn awareness should be created so as to get those in dark informed. Check ups should also be done atleast twice in a year so as to know personal status.

It is true to say that in case of pregnancy mother should start medical care to prevent transmitting to the child during the labour and breastfeeding....... By Rahma
ReplyDeleteAnyone can contract HIV, and while drug addicts are at great risk because of practices related to their drug use, anyone who engages in unsafe sex (e.g., unprotected sex with an infected partner) could be exposed to HIV infection
ReplyDeletePregnant mothers should take medicine so that they can protect their at womb
ReplyDeleteBefore marriage couples should go for a Elisa test to enable them know their current status i.e HIV positive or negative.

ReplyDeleteWhen someone gets hiv that person can spread the infection to other people imediately and hiv develops in to aids the virus can spread when infected blood or body fluids such as semen or vaginal fluids enter the body .by Zahara
ReplyDeletePeople believe that for one to get infected with HIV one should have practised sex ,infected by use of cutting objects, syringes or being born by an infected mother whereas as people who have experienced STIs are also at high risk because they are always exposed to the HIV virus.
ReplyDeleteI agree and believe that awareness concerning HIV should be made to stop the spread. The infected should also come out and clearly state their status to curb the spread.
ReplyDeletePeer pressure has resulted to many negative effects in the society one being leading to the spread of HIV/AIDS . It's everyone's responsibility to get tested. This will greatly assist people to be responsible.
ReplyDeleteHiv can be transmitted through several way such as sex,mother to child,injection and others,so people should be careful
ReplyDeleteThough condom is the most prefered mode of protection,most people do not like using it.The best thing to do is to absatain
ReplyDeleteHiv can be transmitted from an infected person to another through direct contact of bodily fluids lyk blood nd the best way to fight hiv is to know your status.
ReplyDeleteBy Zamzam Ahmed
Use of condom is commonly The method that prevents the hiv transmission and (STI) and even pregnancy so people should be encouraged to use a condom
