What is AIDS?
AIDS stands for Acquired Immunodeficiency
Syndrome. AIDS is the advanced stage of the disease caused by a
virus called HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus).
HIV attacks and damages the body's immune and nervous
systems.
Everyone can be affected by HIV/AIDS - male, female, young and
old.
Is there a cure for HIV infection?
Not yet! Progress has been made, but prevention is still our
only defense.
How can I get infected?
By having unprotected vaginal and/or anal sex with someone
already infected.
By sharing needles for injecting drugs like cocaine, heroin,
or steroids with someone already infected.
By receiving infected blood or blood products .
During pregnancy, at birth or through breastfeeding, an
infected mother can pass the virus to her child.
What happens if I am infected?
After infection, people may not feel or look sick for
years.
However, they can still pass HIV to others.
Over time, the nervous and immune systems become damaged and
HIV-infected people become sick with different illnesses.
For people living with advanced HIV infection or AIDS, their
immune and nervous systems are weak. They get diseases, such as
infections or cancers which can kill them.
How do I know if I am infected?
Over time, the body produces antibodies to fight the HIV
virus. A blood test can tell if you have these antibodies which
show you are infected.
It can take as early as 6 weeks and up to 6 months after
infection for these antibodies to show.
How do I protect myself?
No risk
- abstinence (from sex or needles)
- if you and your partner are not infected and you only have sex
with each other.
Some risk
- safer sex activities
- safer needle use.
What are safer sex activities?
Safer sex activities prevent contact with semen, vaginal
fluids or blood.
Talk to your partner about safer sex before having sex.
Use a latex condom correctly every time you have sex.
Use only water-based lubricants. Oil-based lubricants such as
petroleum jelly should never be used because they may weaken the
condom and cause it to break.
What is safer needle use?
Don't share needles if you are injecting drugs.
Use needle exchange programs where used needles can be
exchanged for new ones, or
rinse your needles twice in water, twice in bleach for 30
seconds, and twice in water again.
Genesis 1:29 "And God
said, 'Behold I have given every herb-bearing seed which is upon
the face of all the earth and every tree, in which is the fruit
of a tree yielding seed: to you it shall be for meat'."
