The document discusses the Memorial AIDS Quilt and efforts to raise awareness of HIV/AIDS among young people in Chicago. It notes that the Quilt was created in 1987 to memorialize AIDS victims individually and provide a way to remember those who died when families would not hold funerals. It also discusses that HIV infection rates remain high among those aged 13-29 despite available information, and efforts are needed to encourage testing, education, and fostering a "Know Your Status" environment to help prevent further spread.
This manual features a range of HIV/AIDS youth activism projects that use art as a medium for education and social change. The featured projects employ various art forms like fashion, photography, button-making, and performance to raise awareness, challenge stigma, and advocate for communities affected by HIV/AIDS. Early AIDS activism in the 1980s relied heavily on arts and creative expression to spread safer sex messages and protest government inaction. Iconic images and slogans from this era, like Silence=Death, helped mobilize communities and draw attention to the crisis. Contemporary Canadian HIV/AIDS arts activism continues this rich tradition while creating new understandings and actions.

The document discusses The AIDS Memorial Quilt, which was created in 1987 as a memorial to those who died of AIDS. It is composed of thousands of 12' x 12' fabric panels, each representing an individual who died. The first panel was made by Cleve Jones for his friend Marvin Feldman. When displayed, the massive size of the quilt makes its message about AIDS deaths difficult to ignore. Letters and messages are often included with the panels to commemorate those who have died. Celebrities who died of AIDS, like Rock Hudson, also have panels dedicated to them in the quilt. The quilt has inspired other memorial projects and raised awareness about AIDS. Today, education is still needed as HIV infection rates remain high among
HIV originated from a virus found in chimpanzees. It likely entered the US in the 1970s and was originally known as GRID since it seemed to affect gay men. In the early 1980s it became apparent that HIV could infect heterosexuals as well, and it was renamed to AIDS. In 1984, scientists identified HIV as the cause of AIDS. The first drug to treat AIDS, AZT, was approved in 1987. HIV attacks and weakens the immune system, ultimately leading to AIDS if not treated. It is most often transmitted through unprotected sex or sharing needles.
The document discusses HIV/AIDS, including how it was first detected in 1959 and has since killed over 21 million people. It spreads through bodily fluids and infected blood, initially affecting communities in West Africa before spreading globally. While treatments can now control the virus, there is still no vaccine or cure. Those living with HIV/AIDS often face stigma and discrimination. It remains a serious global epidemic.
Children can become infected with HIV/AIDS through mother-to-child transmission during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding, or through sexual contact with an infected individual. Adolescent girls and young women are among the most vulnerable groups due to biological and socioeconomic factors. While organizations and governments work to educate communities and increase access to treatment, stigma surrounding the disease continues to negatively impact those living with HIV/AIDS, especially children.
This presentation is about aids and is used to educate youth on the importance of being informed, well prepared, and of making safe decisions. It also teaches youth about how to get involved and support the fight against aids and make a difference!
This document summarizes Mary Fisher's 1992 speech at the Republican National Convention titled "A Whisper of AIDS". The speech effectively promoted AIDS awareness in the US and helped change public policy. At a time when the disease was poorly understood and HIV-positive individuals faced much stigma and discrimination, Fisher's powerful speech as an HIV-positive woman brought attention to the reality of the epidemic.

Remember AIDS does not discriminate caste, creed, race, religion, educational or social status. Prevention of AIDS is our joint responsibility. Education and awareness is the only weapon in our hand. Let us accept the challenge to fight against AIDS. We must support and care for the people with HIV / AIDS with compassion and understanding. We need to be aware of the AIDS and very frankly it’s the demand of time, if we really want to eradicate AIDS from the society then we need to discuss about AIDS in society. Though Indian government is trying a lot to bring awareness about AIDS in the society but the real awareness can be brought in ourselves when we become determined to know the real cause and preventive measures of AIDS.

CHAPTER 13 WORKING WITH PEOPLE WHO LIVE WITH HIV AND AIDS: THE PROBLEM AND HUMAN SERVICES
WM. LYNN MCKINNEY
As a human service worker, you are almost certain to have clients who are people living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and persons living with AIDS (PWAs). This is true because AIDS affects people of all ages, sexual orientations, and ethnic and minority groups and because the needs of PWAs and people living with HIV are numerous and span virtually all human service programs. Because AIDS is an illness, there are medical needs. Since most PWAs eventually must stop working, they have income needs. The number of children who have HIV is growing, and these young people may have educational needs. For several reasons, there are likely to be psychological and social needs.
First of all, AIDS occurs primarily in people younger than fifty, which means that PWAs must deal with a fatal illness at an early age. Second, AIDS is found mainly in marginalized people such as homosexual men, injection drug users, and racial and ethnic minorities. Still another reason that PWAs may have psychological needs is that many of them will have many friends who are seriously ill or who have died. The effects of such losses are potentially enormous. Thus, the entire human service system is involved in working with people living with AIDS and HIV. So, as you enter the field, it is important that you know about HIV and AIDS and society’s reactions to the disease.
Working with people with AIDS and HIV presents particular challenges. Many people with this illness will not have close ties with their families who may have turned their backs on what is perceived to be a social embarrassment. Most will be poor, some because they were poor when they became sick and others because the disease is impoverishing. Death from AIDS-related causes can be horrible; the diseases and infections that affect a PWA can leave people thin and weak and seemingly defenseless for long periods of time. Unlike those with other illnesses, PWAs may be very sick and close to death for a while and then go through long periods of good health when they can lead happy, productive lives. As more cases of AIDS are diagnosed among drug users, more clients may be difficult to work with. Finally, with more women contracting the virus and dying, there are orphaned children who are not infected as well as children who were born with the virus. Many of these children are not or cannot be cared for by their mothers or other relatives.
However, working in the HIV field can be rewarding. As you must know, as you are planning to enter the human service field, all work with people is rewarding. If your interest is in research, you can become involved with learning more about the virus, thus increasing the probability of a cure, a vaccine, or better care for people who are HIV positive. If you work with individual clients, you will no doubt develop intense, deep relationships with many of them; some of ...

This document discusses the challenges human service workers face in helping clients with alcohol and drug abuse issues. It notes that substance abuse affects people of all backgrounds and is a widespread problem. As generalists working with many specialists, human service workers must achieve early detection of substance abuse issues to enable prevention or appropriate care. The key challenge is accurately identifying how substance abuse contributes to and results from a client's other problems in areas like health, legal issues, finances, family, etc. Failure to correctly identify these connections would undermine efforts to effectively help the client.

This essay discusses the AIDS epidemic and factors that led to its spread in China, specifically in Henan province. It analyzes the epidemic from scientific, economic, and social perspectives. Scientifically, HIV attacks and destroys immune cells. Economically, over 100,000 farmers were infected after unhygienic blood collection, and nearly 10,000 died. Socially, the Chinese government initially hid the problem and did little to address it, underestimating the number of people living with AIDS. Suggestions are made to better resolve the issue.
This document provides information about HIV/AIDS, including what it is, how it is transmitted, who is most vulnerable, stages of infection, testing and treatment options, and prevention methods. HIV attacks CD4 cells in the immune system and develops into AIDS when CD4 cells are severely reduced, leaving the body vulnerable to opportunistic infections. HIV is most prevalent in sub-Saharan Africa and can infect anyone regardless of age, race, or sexual orientation. Abstinence, monogamy, condom use, sterile needle use, and not sharing personal items are effective prevention methods.

- In the early years of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s, factors like lack of funding and public indifference inhibited efforts to address the disease.
- Advocacy has played a key role in advancing research on HIV/AIDS.
- Today, HIV/AIDS still exists and can be transmitted, but treatment allows people to live long lives with the virus. Safe sex practices remain important.
This document provides guidance for newly diagnosed HIV positive individuals on disclosing their status to others. It recommends the following steps:
1. Forgive yourself - having HIV is not a punishment and anyone can get it, so do not blame yourself.
2. Give yourself time - there is no set timeline, some people need weeks or months to come to terms with their diagnosis while others need years, so take the time you need.
3. Choose who to tell wisely - only disclose to those you trust who will be supportive, as it could negatively impact your mental health if the reaction is not positive.
The document discusses the level of awareness and practices regarding HIV/AIDS prevention among male adolescents and young adults in Cavite, Philippines. It notes that adolescents have limited access to facts about HIV and many believe they are immune. While risky behaviors are increasing, few high-risk youth have been tested for HIV. More initiatives are needed to educate young people and address the growing threat of HIV infection in this vulnerable population.

HIV and AIDS is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV weakens a person's immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease and infection. The virus is transmitted through sexual contact, contaminated blood transfusions and needle sharing. While there is no cure for AIDS, treatment involves antiretroviral drugs that can control the virus and prevent transmission. Prevention methods include abstinence, monogamy, condom use and HIV testing.

Your smile is beautiful.
Let’s be honest. Maintaining that beautiful smile is not an easy task. It is more than brushing and flossing. Sometimes, you might encounter dental issues that need special dental care. These issues can range anywhere from misalignment of the jaw to pain in the root of teeth.
Summer is a time for fun in the sun, but the heat and humidity can also wreak havoc on your skin. From itchy rashes to unwanted pigmentation, several skin conditions become more prevalent during these warmer months.
The skin is the largest organ and its health plays a vital role among the other sense organs. The skin concerns like acne breakout, psoriasis, or anything similar along the lines, finding a qualified and experienced dermatologist becomes paramount.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
