HIV spreads in China
(http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/10/07/healthscience/aids.php)

My Reactions:
When hearing AIDS, people will feel uncomfortable for it has become one of the toughest diseases to deal with by doctors all around the world. It has taken uncountable lives from everywhere. People cannot be cured and what we can do is only to prevent ourselves from it. The spread of AIDS is quite fast, especially in the populated places.
In Taiwan, there are also many people infected with AIDS. Some are just babies who get AIDS from their mothers. They might not live long because they will easily die of some diseases that general people can recover soon by themselves but due to the AIDS, maybe they will just die of a slight cold.
Others are adults, and perhaps they used drugs with many people but only using one pinhead or maybe they are homosexual so they are infected with AIDS. Many people feel regretful while it is too late. All they could do now is to make their lives more meaningful and make themselves more happy. People around them also should help them, accompany them, and cheer for them. They are not scared and we have to makes friends with them.
However, we all still should protect ourselves well from AIDS. AIDS has become a big problem in every country in the world. Governments spend a lot of money every year to help people keep away from AIDS and to take care of the people infected with AIDS. So, we need to help us and others stay away from AIDS. (273 words)
