ACTIVITY 5: YOUR AID TO AIDS

Write a short reflection on how HIV affect a person’s life and others.

- Being infected with the HIV virus has a negative impact on a person's life in general. Beyond the
symptoms and steady decrease in both health and appearance once it begins, the most difficult
element is the social stigma that comes with it, which is also the most distressing. All but the
most devoted of their friends will most likely leave, even among family; only the closest ones
will stay with you and cheer you up while you bounce back and forth between melancholy and
acceptance. A significant part of how an individual will deal with this will be depending on the
personality of the sufferer and the individuals standing beside him.
