HIV/Aids Consequence Map

No, I do not think so because it does not do something against the government. It does it for he good of people and is not illegal to do so.

Testing

-Antibody tests

-p24 antigen test

-PCR test

-After being diagnosed with HIV – CD4 test and viral load test

People might go against their opinion. They can organize events against them because they don't believe in spending so much money on sick people; rather they spend it on the economy

OACHA

-Provides social and health policy advice for hiv/aids

-1/3 of the people are living with hiv/aids

-OACHA is involved in the following: public health, school-based hiv/aids education/ HIV and solid organ transmission

-Health care for non-insured people

•The treatment includes taking medicine every day for the rest of a person's life. The goal of antiretroviral treatment is to keep the HIV concentration low in the body to prevent getting aids and recover the damage the disease might have caused.

From 15,904 people living with HIV/AIDS in 1999 to 26,627 in 2008, which represents an increase of 67%.

citizens working together to make people more safe, secure and happy. They have the sense of responsibility and care for others. That is why they are organizing events and committees that gets people aware of HIV and aids.

• laws : In Canada it is a criminal offense to transmit or expose another person HIV though unprotected sex.
• Legislative decided that criminal law requires people living with HIV to disclose their before engaging in behaviors that risk transmitting HIV.

There is not currently an effective vaccine to prevent HIV infection.

Medicine to treat it

•Antiretroviral therapies consists of the combination of at least three antiretroviral (ARV) drugs to maximally restrain the HIV virus and stop the progression of HIV disease. It is not a cure, but it can stop people from becoming ill for years.

History

ethical issues

In 1981, the first cases of AIDS were two gay in United States. However, scientist discovered that it started in 1930's.

Taking into consideration that half of the world's population lives in Asia it has more people affected by HIV. In 2010 around half (2.4 million) of people living with HIV in Asia lived in India. Most people in the Asian countries get the disease when men who have sex with men (MSM), injecting drug users (IDUs), sex workers and their partners.

What it is

Prevention Strategies

A vaccine is a medicine that teaches the body's immune system to recognize and protect against a disease caused.

It consists of the combination of at least three antiretroviral (ARV) drugs to stop the progression of HIV disease.

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (aids) is a disease caused by a virus called HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). The illness changes the immune system, making people much more defenseless to infections and diseases.

Communities Affected

In 2010, some 1.5 million people were living with HIV, compared to 410,000 in 2001. Many people inject themselves with drugs which increases the risk of spreading the disease. The needles cause the infection to spread

in 2011 the total number of people living with HIV/AIDS in the Middle East and North Africa to an estimated 300,000. The problem is that access to antiretroviral therapy is extremely low causing people to die.

Asia and the Pacific

Individual Rights violated

HIV and Aids in Ontario

- Ontario Advisory Committee on HIV/AIDS (OACHA)- provides broad social and health policy advice to the Minister of Health and Long-Term Care on all aspects of HIV/AIDS. - spends approximately $60 million a year on HIV/AIDS-related initiatives

- to deliver HIV/AIDS prevention, education and support programs, Ontario government provides funding for more than 90 programs and services across the province

Scientific Consequences

The infection is spreading in this country by unprotected sex and drug injection. HIV prevalence appears to have fallen by half between the mid-1990s and 2003-2004.

Ethical/Legal Consequences

At the end of 2010, 1.5 million people were living with HIV in Latin America.

•67,000 people died of AIDS

•100,000 were newly infected in that year.

World Aids day : World AIDS Day is on December 1st every year to help create awareness of AIDS pandemic caused by the HIV infection being spread through your body.

Global Consequences

: UNAIDS, the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS, is a partnership that informs and leads the the world in achieving universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support.

•Africa- At the end of 2011, there were 9 countries in Africa where more than one tenth of the adult population aged 15-49 was infected with HIV. In Sub-Saharan Africa, 1.8 million people were estimated to be infected by HIV. Women in Africa are more at risk; they are 58 percent of all people living with HIV in the region.

Economic Consequences

East and Southern Africa- 1/5 is living with the virus. South Africa has more people living with HIV than any other country because around 5.6 million people are infected by it.

Africa

affect the cultural, ethnic, and/or economic divides

Affected communities

The adults and the children of the community are affected by the disease. When one parent is HIV positive, it is likely that their partner will also get in and it will be transfer to their babies.

Affected cultures

Desirable or undesirable for:

Environmental Consequences

Social Consequences

More money and attention is given to them and not to the cultural problems going on for a long time as well. Most of the money set to use for the people will get used in the prevention , that the government might not use more money on them. If the people being helped belong to another culture they will be happy.

The cultures who believe in having women as sex workers and being sexually active to support their family. Most will have the HIV virus.

Health care costs, Research, Lost economic production, Education

Different groups of people affected

Personal Consequences

The African Culture because most of the HIV disease is spread there. They will get discriminated just because they are African and may have HIV; however they may not be but still face consequences.

Connecting and dividing

Life style and living conditions

Impacts on conservation groups

Changes in land use

• global- Desirable to help people live healthy
• country- Desirable
• company- Undesirable
• immediate neighbors- Depends
• people in general- Desirable

• HIV/AIDS cost Canadians more than $2 billion in 1999 in direct and indirect costs.
• Health care costs accounted for about $560 million; prevention, research and supports to AIDS victims for about $40 million; and lost economic production due to premature death and disability for nearly $1.5 billion.
• economic cost of AIDS remains high so the prevention strategies will cause long-term direct and indirect cost saying to the Canadian economy

Land is not used and sustained due to these factors:

• Land is changing as people rely on practices such as fire or extensive farming that can be more damaging to vegetation and wildlife. Knowledge about sustainability is going away as parents of children die early.
• Widows and children are not able to inherit land because of national land policies or traditional practices.

Effects

Personal Action that can be taken to reduce AIDS

Employment- The people carrying the disease get discriminated. They are unable to find a job.

Connect: The people who want to stop it, and the ones who have it. The people living in poverty come together where they share their thoughts and some help others.

the impact on employment or economic stability

Personal Action for awareness

Women are in more risk of getting the virus than men. In poor countries where poverty is high, women have no choice while getting married or finding a partner. Most are not even educated of the disease, and the ones who are are unable to get their partners tested. They are also powerless in the poor countries, and if they get the virus they get even more discriminated.

Effects

World's Aids day

Diversion of conservation funds for AIDS cost

Students to help spread word by:

• Use condoms if sexually active
• Do not share anything that has been in your body (needles)
• Go to test yourself at a clinic

Sports- Considering that some sports contains contact, people do not appreciate people with HIV to touch them.

They are unable to join teams if they have the disease, or if they join they do not get treated equality. The health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act protects their right to play, however they still face the discrimination.

Cost

Lower labor

Saving investment reduced

Divides: The healthy one from the ones with disease. Their thoughts and ideas do not match. They people who are rich get dived from the poor because they do not want their disease.

Short term

Long term

health education suffers

• Educate people by talking to them personally and telling them to spread the word
• tell people ways to prevent it and explain how they can get it
• organize clubs at school that help people with the disease
• encourage people to get tested if sexually active

- The expenses that reduce the budget available for conservation work are the costs of medical expenses, sick leave, terminal benefits and funeandral costs, training for replacement staff.

United Nations

More people with aids meaning more job opportunities

Relationships: It is difficult for people to start relationships because they are carrying a deadly virus. People tend to stay away from them because they do not want to take the risk of getting the disease. Families usually support them but a distance is caused because of the problem.

The disease causes the immune system to get weak. As years pass it gets worse. This will lead a person to wide varieties of infections that a normal, healthy body can easily fight off.

Natural Resources

• Public awareness campaigns
• Educate people who do now know about his
• Build secondary school youth clubs who collect money and educate the school
• The Special Youth Fellowship Programme is part of UNAIDS’ New Generation Leadership Initiative, which works towards achieving the targets set in the 2011 Political Declaration on AIDS by increasing youth leadership, ownership, and mobilization in the AIDS response at the country, regional, and global level by 2015.

Since the virus has spread, it does not allow people to work because some die and others have it. Everything from that is connected to the economy. Less people working means the economy goes down. The country end up being low in money and respect. Other countries that depend on others also get effected because there is a decline in imported goods.

Increased use of natural resources can cause decline in the future.

Water, firewood and medicinal plants are consumed by households caring for the sick. The coffin industry is growing meaning more trees are being cut to make the coffins. The increases in resource use may not be sustainable . In the long term it is a threat to the nearby communities and even the world because it will cost them more to find replacements for the natural resources. There will be more pollution in the world.

Death

Short term

Long term

It is held on December every year and it provides the opportunity for people around the world to come together and fight against HIV. They show their support for the people living with it and the ones who have dies. It is a day where everyone get's motivated to do something about HIV and help the people living with it.

World Health Organization (WHO) And UN strategies to reduce and prevent AIDS

• To make a vaccine that will be provided to everyone in the world to stop the spread of the disease.
• Give access to diagnostic tests and medicines is to prevent and treat people with HIV. WHO convenes the AIDS Medicines and Diagnostics Service (AMDS), who provide guidance and supply for the management of HIV
• Their prevention package includes: the provision of HIV testing and counseling services; treatment for sexually transmitted infections; the promotion of safer sex practices; the provision of male and female condoms and promotion of their correct and consistent use.

Changes in farming practices

Losing sense of touch , kidney failure, and death

Employers will take an employee who have good health benefits; however if the aid number is high, then the employers will face employment problems. The economy will get unstable because the prevention, taking care of the sick will cost a lot to the Canadian economy. In addition, the cure is still needs to be discover, and it will also take a lot of money to do that.

When agricultural labor is lost, the income of a household starts to decline. This can increase the risk of fires because farm lands are not being taken care of.

•Loss of time and training the staff

reduce the ability to achieve conservation goals.

•Loss of human capacity losing staff members to AIDS in the country's most seriously affected by the disease
