Aids...Are You Afraid?

AIDS...Are You Afraid?

This week when school starts, September 5th, a new

child is enrolling. The school will not give out her name

but they will give out more personal things for example, she

is HIV infected. I was sad for the girl but i was also happy

to hear this, because it will educate the kids at Windam

Tech. Another reason is that i would enjoy letting this girl

to be finally "let in" for once, and this would also be good

for the community.

How AIDS entered this world is uncertain ,people have

their theories; AIDS came from monkeys, the government

nfected people with the virus to control the population, and

African Americans brought the virus from Africa. This is

only the beginning, people these days think that the virus

can be spread through toilet seats or even hugging. This is

why we need to educate the people, tell them the truth, you

can only get aids through blood, vomit, seman, needles, or

vaginal secreations. She will educate the school and the

community.

It would also be very helpful to this girl who is

infected to be "let in" for once. Not only the girl has fear

but her family has fear too. Fear that people will find out

and know. As a suriviving sister was furios with her parents

because they would not acknowledge to anyone that her

brother had AIDS. They told everyone he died from a brain

tomor.# This is very important because the last few moments

of this girls life should be delightful, not humiliating.

Bringing an infected person to the community will be

good for it. Over 35,000 people die from AIDS* whic means

they have to live somewher, why not here? Imagine the

heading on the front page, " Community of Windham has a

special heart". This could lead to more budget, tax cuts, or

even an award!!!
