AIDS…Are You Afraid?
This week when school starts, September 5th, a new
child is enrolling. The school will not give out her name
but they will give out more personal things for example, she
is HIV infected. I was sad for the girl but i was also happy
to hear this, because it will educate the kids at Windam
Tech. Another reason is that i would enjoy letting this girl
to be finally “let in” for once, and this would also be good
for the community.
How AIDS entered this world is uncertain ,people have
their theories; AIDS came from monkeys, the government
nfected people with the virus to control the population, and
African Americans brought the virus from Africa. This is
only the beginning, people these days think that the virus
can be spread through toilet seats or even hugging. This is
why we need to educate the people, tell them the truth, you
can only get aids through blood, vomit, seman, needles, or
vaginal secreations. She will educate the school and the
community.
It would also be very helpful to this girl who is
infected to be “let in” for once. Not only the girl has fear
but her family has fear too. Fear that people will find out
and know. As a suriviving sister was furios with her parents
because they would not acknowledge to anyone that her
brother had AIDS. They told everyone he died from a brain
tomor.# This is very important because the last few moments
of this girls life should be delightful, not humiliating.
Bringing an infected person to the community will be
good for it. Over 35,000 people die from AIDS* whic means
they have to live somewher, why not here? Imagine the
heading on the front page, ” Community of Windham has a
special heart”. This could lead to more budget, tax cuts, or
even an award!!!
