Not only has the disease affected gay men but it has impacted the world and affected thousands of people. AIDS has no specific gender, race, age or culture.

Epidemiologically, the rapid spread of the virus can be attributed to health care workers being infected before they were aware to take precautionary measures and international routes of travel affecting large amounts of people in close quarters by carriers who were unaware they were infected (Sampathkumar et. al, 2003). According to the World Health Organization (2003) the most infectivity was from people experiencing symptoms of respiratory illness and declining health (World Health Organization, 2003).

Many circumstances and factors in each area contribute to the differences in the aggravated assault crime rates reported by The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Uniform Crime Reporting Statistics. Comparing the two cities’ crime rates shows one example of how different two areas can be. Crime rates are different in areas across the United States and many factors influence those rates. Knoxville Tennessee does have a higher aggravated assault crime rate than Inglewood California. According to the Neighborhood Scout website, Inglewood California ranks 24 percent safer than other cities in the United States, and Knoxville Tennessee ranks two percent safer than other cities in the United States.
Prices for goods increased along with the wages of the people. An iconic symptom of the Black Death was the appearance of buboes. They would appear either in the neck, armpits, or the groin.

Initially, it diagnosed as a rare form of pneumonia that occurred in homosexual men and then later as a rare form of cancer (Fan, Aids Science, and Society.p.3). Yet, its effects became so devastating that there were more that 641, 00 cases if AIDS reported correctly in the United States between 1981 and 1997 (Fan, Aids Science and Society P. 4).

After reading "Girl," by Jamaica Kincaid we learned how much women’s rights have changed in the last 50 years, and how society has changed in general. So many things were accepted in the 1950’s and 1960’s that are no longer tolerable today, such as racism, sexism and other prejudices. Looking at all of these changes, I wanted to examine the epidemic in our country that is accepted and embraced now, but is screaming for change; that is the rising obesity rates, and how fast food is ruining our country. We now know the truth about how bad these things really are, and we can look around and see the aftermath. Here in America we have the biggest people on earth with some weighing up to 900lbs.
A Whisper of AIDS The reality of AIDS is brutally clear to those who are infected, but to those who are not it always seems like a distant whisper. Living with AIDS is not easy nor is it something the world should take likely but it does.

A white, mother named Mary Fisher used her courage and compassion to tell the world her story. In this essay I analyze the rhetorical situation of “A Whisper of AIDS” article and her use of pathos, logos and ethos appeal.
While realizing a world very different from what we live in everyday, Qorro explains the struggles that Africa children and families face from “Where and Why Children Face the Greatest Danger of Dying in Africa.” While Africa struggles in many different areas, amongst one of the greatest is healthcare, specifically malnutrition. More than half of children's deaths in Africa are due to malnutrition in which thousands are dying. Although the values of deaths continue to decrease steadily, there is an abundance of improvement that can still be done by carrying little steps out at a time. Specifically for the United States to help, we could share our advanced technology or train nurses to aid in maternal care and births. As much as we think we suffer, are eyes haven't been opened to the world outside of ours and if there's a time to act, it's now!
According to research, life expectancy rose and death rates began to fall, mostly in infants due to the improvement in sanitation and the provision of clean water, improvement on the council houses and the general improved standards of living. The social model believes that ill health is as a result of the inequalities in society and the life circumstances of the disadvantaged. Marxists believe that levels of illness differ in relation to social class, i.e. there is a high level of illness in poor areas because of poor nutrition, excessive drinking and lack of exercises, there is unequal distribution of NHS resources/ postcode lottery (the health care received depends on geographical location) e.g. South Wales is one of the deprived areas in the UK with fewer hospitals and doctors.
