EPTP.S. Does anyone know someone who actually has aids? I don't know a single person out of everyone ive met my entire life who does (or knows about it rather). I think that the people i know are either very unaware, or the government made up Aids. -.-

HIV is a virus while AIDS is the disease that is (usually) caused by this virus. You can be infected by the virus and still not have AIDS, and you can in rare cases have AIDS but not through the HIV. You have AIDS "when the CD4 count goes below 200 (from a normal count of 1,000)" so it isn't an arbitrary number. | ||

All this fund raising for AIDS, cancer and shit is such a scam. Why should regular people support it with their own money? In the end it would be pharmaseuticals who make billons upon billons $$ of profit when the drug is out. | ||
