Diseases and the chinese culture

[yang88]

Dear cecil,
In south Africa the African culture is become a big hindrance in the preventing of deadly diseases like HIV as a result millions of young children and women and young man are dying. What about chinese culture. How has this disease impacted the people. Thanks.

Dear Anon,
1. In a documentary which I had seen around 6 months ago, it hightlighted the `plight' of aids spreading across China.
2. In that documentary, it is quite scary to learn that at least a few million Chinese (in a nearly 1 billion population) has aids.
The aids in China had spread especially in cities and the `exploition' girls into prostitution in the cities.
It is no suprise because of the opening up of China, money plays an essential role and acts as a catalyst for the poorer Chinese girls who wants a better life.
3. Thus, I believe, all countries both in Africa and all continents have a huge burden on aids.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
