FYI

Just so everyone knows, I don't keep up my blog...maybe someday I will. I had to start this blog for a Public Health class I took at OSU and I use my profile to comment on other blogs, predominantly my friend Lauren's blog www.thelittlethingswedo.blogspot.com

The title of this blog is lame and I haven't posted for well probably two years.

I am still a Public Health student at Portland State University. As well as a Zumba instructor for 24hr fitness in the Portland area. And a lover of fashion but not materialism...it is a fine balance.

No one will probably read this but oh well.

Cheers -J

Responses to "Top Ten Things You Should Know About HIV and AIDS"

Most of the information in this paper wasn't new to me but I thought that the information given was the most substantial. It is surprising how little people now about HIV and AIDS. I think it is particularly important to work towards a point where there is no longer a stigma towards those with HIV/AIDS and especially that people learn that this is a disease that does not discriminate, that people from all walks of life can have HIV/AIDS. This paper expresses that HIV/AIDS is a global issue that needs to be talked about and our youth need to be educated. There is still so many people that could have the opportunity of life if they only had the right care and technology. Hopefully this will one day be an epidemic of the past.
