How can we improve AIDs and HIV sustainably?
1. Education
2. Medication |
1. By educating people about HIV and AIDs in ways such as how you can catch it, what it does to you, how you can prevent yourself from catching it and how you can treat it if you do catch it, you allow people to help themselves by giving them the knowledge they need to make a logical judgement. Also, this gained knowledge about AIDs and HIV can be spread from generation to generation and place to place just by word of mouth, without even costing a penny or harming the environment, making it a very sustainable way to improve the situation of AIDs throughout Africa.
2. Medication can control HIV and AIDs when it's caught so early diagnosis of it is essential. By setting up hospitals in the rural parts of Africa, where there are more people likely to become infected by AIDs and not realise that they have it, could not only lower the amount of people dying from AIDs but help to prevent it spreading , by alerting people that they have HIV or AIDs so that they don't spread it. Building hospitals is fairly sustainable but not fully because building the hospitals would be costly to an economy that doesn't have a lot of money in the first place. Also, after building the initial hospital, the government would have to continually stock the hospitals with essential kit and medication- also increasing cost and potentially damaging the environment as well by using up land for the hospitals which could have been growing crops or being an animal habitat. |
