Answer to Question 1
The AIDS virus was identified in 1981. Since then 600,000 Americans have died from the disease. Worldwide, the death toll due to AIDS is about 40 million. In the U.S., the disease is monitored and treated, reducing the number of deaths each year to about 14,000. About 500,000 Americans who have the disease receive treatment; however, the treatment is expensive and thousands go without any type of treatment. Globally, 2.7 million new HIV infections are reported annually, while 40 million have died from AIDS. Sub-Saharan Africa, which is 10 percent of the world's population, accounts for 67 percent of all people living with HIV and 72 percent of the world's deaths from AIDS. In nations that cannot afford treatment, the disease takes a heavy toll on the quality of life and life expectancy. Regardless of an antiretroviral therapy, there remains no cure.
