The virus that is supposedly known to kill millions of people around the world called AIDS, is continuing to inhabit people's bodies each and every day. People look to blame the other person when getting the virus, but is there another source of why this disease is continuing to kill so many? Maybe the world needs to look at the fact that there is not enough education to inform people of how to prevent this deadly virus. It is plain and simple, if people understand the who, what, when, where, and why's of this virus then the world might see a drop of people infected eventually.
When you know something is bad for you, or know how to prevent it you usually would try and avoid the bad thing. For instance, this might seem on a much lesser scale but it is still the same concept. Everyone knows that if you anger a bee that it will try and sting you. Most people don't want to be stung by a bee, because people are educated that it will most likely try and sting you if you anger it. All people need to do to avoid this virus is know the general facts, and it is obvious that lots of people around the world do not have the education and facts to prevent the spread of AIDS.
Man needs to rapidly come up with new ways to inform the world better on how to stop the spread of AIDS. An idea that I think would be logical is to make it mandatory in all elementary schools to have a class on educating our young children about this disease. The younger the kids learn about the disease, and how to prevent it the more likely they will have it drilled into there heads about the virus. It might seem a very young age to inform someone about such a heavy subject, but this in my opinion is the best option man kind has to stop the spread of HIV or AIDS.
