AIDS

The World Health Organization (WHO) says as many as 10 million persons

worldwide may have the virus that causes AIDS(艾滋病).Experts believe about 350

thousand persons have the disease.And one million more may get it in the next

five years.In the United States,about 50,000 persons have died with AIDS.The

country's top medical official says more than 90 percent of all Americans who

had the AIDS virus five years ago are dead.

There is no cure for AIDS and no vaccine(疫苗) to prevent

it.However,researchers know much more about AIDS than they did just a few years

ago.We now know that AIDS is caused by a virus.The virus invades healthy

cells,including white blood cells that are part of our defense system against

disease.It takes control of the healthy cell's genetic(基因的) material and

forces the cell to make a copy of the virus.The cell then dies.And the viral

particles move on to invade and kill healthier cells.

The AIDS virus is carried in a person's body fluids(液体).The virus can be

passed sexually or by sharing instruments used to take intravenous(进入静脉的)

drugs.It also can be passed in blood products or from a pregnant woman with

AIDS to her developing baby.

Many stories about the spread of AIDS are false.You cannot get AIDS by working

or attending school with someone who has the disease.You can not get it by

touching drinking glasses or other objects used by such persons.Experts say no

one has gotten AIDS by living with,caring for or touching an AIDS patient.

16 According to the WHO,there are now 10 million AIDS patients in the world.
