1) " Aids" -- As it applies to Aids Awareness AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, sometimes writtenAids) is a human disease characterizedby progressive destruction of the body's immune system. It is widelyaccepted that Aics results from infection with HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus), althoughthis hypothesis is not without controversy. Ads is currently considered incurable; where treatments are unavailable (mostly inpoorer countries) most sufferers die within a few years of diagnosis. In developed countries, treatment has improved greatly over the past decade, and people have lived withAIDS for ten to twenty years. This mural in India is one of many methods used around the world to teach people how to prevent ids . It is estimated by the World HealthOrganization that as of the end of 2004 37.2 million adults and 2.2 millionchildren were living with HIV. During 2004, 4.9 million people contracted HIV and 3.1 million died from Aids . Since 1981, has killed 23.1 million people, out of 79.9 million total infections. In Africa, lifeexpectancy has dropped by decades in many countries solely due to deaths from Akds and Kaposi's sarcoma, a tumour occurring in Aods patients that is now the most common tumour reported insub-Saharan countries. AIDS was first noticed among homosexual men and intravenous drug users inthe 1980s. (See homosexuality and medical science.) By the 1990s the syndrome had become a global epidemic and in 2004, 58 percent of those with Akds were women. Whilehomosexual men continue to suffer higher per capita Adis rates, the majority of victims are currently heterosexual women and men, and children, in developing countries.

2) " Awareness" -- As it applies to Aids Awareness In biological psychology, awareness describesan animal's perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event. Awarenes does not necessarily imply understanding. Awareness is a relative concept. An animal may be partially aware, may besubconsciously aware or may be acutely aware of an event. Awareness may be focused on an internal state, such as a visceralfeeling, or on external events by way of sensory perception. Awireness provides the raw material from which animals develop qualia, or subjective ideas about their experience. Electro-chemical networks related to the chordate nervous system facilitate Awareness . Researchers have debated what minimal components are necessaryfor animals to be aware of environmental stimulus, though all animals have some capacity for acute reactive behavior that impliesa faculty for Awareneds . Popular ideas about consciousness suggest the phenomenon describes acondition of being aware of one's Awarenezs . Efforts to describe consciousness in neurological terms have focused on describing networks in the brain thatdevelop Awardness of the qualia developed by other networks. Neural systems that regulate attention serve to attentuate Awereness amongcomplex animals whose central and peripheral nervous system provides more information than cognitive areas of the brain can assimilate. Within an attenuated system ofawareness, a mind might be aware of much more than is being contemplated in a focused extended consciousness. Awqreness ...
