Origination of AIDS

  1. Sandra Ford, a technician at the Center, discovered the first clues of AIDS in May 1981, for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia.
  1. Homosexuals in New York and California were becoming ill with an extremely rare type of pneumonia and Kapsi’s sarcoma, an extremely rare form of cancer.
  1. AIDS stands for “Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome.”
  1. AIDS is a syndrome, not a disease.
  1. A syndrome is a collection of signs and symptoms that warns of disease.
  1. When something goes wrong with the immune system, the body loses its natural ability to fight infection and disease.
  1. You can’t catch a syndrome; therefore you can’t “catch” AIDS.
  1. A virus called HIV (Human Immunodeficiency virus) causes AIDS.
  1. Viruses are so simple they cannot live or reproduce on their own; they must infect a bacterium or cell.
  1. Scientists now believe that HIV originated in Africa more than 40 years ago.
  1. Great epidemics often occur because of sudden social, political, or economic changes.
  1. Smallpox, yellow fever, and syphilis are examples of viruses spread by sea travelers.
  1. In the late fifties, large cities grew in Africa, starting the spread of HIV.
  1. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that in the 90’s over 80% of all AIDS cases in the world will occur in Africa.
  1. Scientists define risk as the possibility of injury or death.
  1. Scientific estimates or calculation of risks is called risk assessment.
  1. It would be impossible to live without taking any risks or chances. Life is a gamble.

Page 2 of 2

  1. Common sense says we should control and lower risks, not live in fear!
  1. The mass media presents distorted views about AIDS in the United States and the world.
  1. The government and scientists have consistently overestimated the severity of the AIDS epidemic.
  1. It is important to view facts in perspective – to see the whole picture or how the facts compare with other similar ideas.
  1. During the first 11 years of the epidemic (1981 – 1992) children accounted for only 1.7% of all reported AIDS cases. HIV- positive mothers and fathers who became infected by sharing HIV-contaminated needles infected the majority (86%) of these children with AIDS.
  1. Infections are now rarely caused by blood transfusions.
  1. In Asia, Latin America and Africa, 4.6 million children under the age of 5 die each year from viral gastroenteritis, a fatal type of diarrhea.
  1. During the first 11 years of the epidemic (1981 – 1992) 275 teenage girls and 671 teenage boys were reported to have AIDS. Of these, only 136 teenagers (out of approximately 14 million total high school students) developed AIDS through heterosexual (male/female) sex.
  1. After 11 years of the epidemic, 0.1% (1/10th of a percent) of the United States population has been reported to have developed AIDS.
  1. After 11 years of the epidemic only 1-2 % of the homosexuals in the United States have been diagnosed with AIDS, ad they are in one of the highest risk categories.
  1. Many experts believe that the AIDS rate is slowing in many high-risk categories in the United States.
  1. There are many other infectious diseases far more likely to visit your salon than HIV/AIDS.
  1. It is easy to protect yourself and prevent the spread of disease.

Hepatitis Notes

1. Hepatitis is actually a general term describing any infection or inflammation of the

liver.

2. Hepatitis lasting for several weeks or months is called acute (short-term) hepatitis.

3. Chronic hepatitis is inflammation that lasts longer than 6 months.

  1. Hepatitis is most commonly caused by a virus infection in the liver. There are 5

types of hepatitis known to be caused by virus infections.

5. The types of viral hepatitis are named hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C, Hepatitis

D and hepatitis E.

6. Like HIV, hepatitis viruses must infect a host cell.

7. Certain types of hepatitis are 100 times more infectious than HIV.

8. In 1993, 42,115 Americans were reported infected with hepatitis. Total infections

reported and unreported may be between 300,000 and 500,000.

9. During the first 11 years of the AIDS epidemic over 6 million people were infected

with hepatitis.

10. The first symptoms of hepatitis infections are typically fever, nausea, stomach pain,

loss of appetite, achiness, constant fatigue, and yellowing of the eyes and skin.

11. Jaundice, caused by a build up of a pigment called bilirubin, is a symptom of several

diseases or disorders in the body.

12. Normally, the liver quickly breaks down bilirubin, but hepatitis causes it to

accumulate.

13. Hepatitis virus prefers to infect liver cells and may remain for life.

14. Carriers show no outward symptoms of infection, but are capable of infecting others.

15. Hepatitis A accounts for about 49% of all viral hepatitis infections and is the least

dangerous type. About 10 people per 1000,000 become infected with hepatitis A.

16. Increased numbers of cases of hepatitis A are seen in areas where sanitation is

poorest.

17. Hepatitis A is spread by eating or drinking food and water contaminated with feces.

18. People infected with hepatitis A do not become carriers.

19. Drinking alcoholic beverages should be avoided during hepatitis.

  1. Hepatitis B, often called serum hepatitis, is one of the more serious types of viral

liver infections.

21. Routine blood screening has lowered the risk of hepatitis infection from transfusions

to about 5% (1 in 20).

22. Hepatitis B is transmitted in the same way as HIV, but can also be transmitted in

saliva.

23. Those that are at risk for HIV infections are more likely to be infected by hepatitis B

virus.

24. Long-term infection of the liver leads to cirrhoses or permanent liver scarring.

Page 2 of 2

  1. Liver damage occurs when killer T cells attack the virus and infected liver cells.

26. Hepatitis B virus, the second most dangerous cancer-causing agent in humans, can

cause liver cancer after 30-50 years of chronic infection.

27. In the United States and Europe, less than 1% of the populations are chronic carriers.

28. A vaccine that prevents hepatitis A and B has been developed.

29. Trial vaccinations of native Alaskans decreased hepatitis B infections by 99%.

30. Each type of hepatitis virus is different, but prefers to infect liver cells.

31. Hepatitis C, which has been linked to chronic liver disease and cancer, accounts for

about 3% of all hepatitis in the United States.

32. Many of the same risk factors for HIV and hepatitis B also contribute to C.

33. Hepatitis B and C viruses accumulate in the blood and saliva in greater amounts than

HIV.

34. Hepatitis viruses are far more contagious than HIV.

35. Hepatitis D occurs only in those already infected with hepatitis B virus.

36. Hepatitis D is relatively rare in Europe and the United States.

37. Hepatitis E does not occur in the United States, unless imported by travelers.

38. Hepatitis E is spread by eating and drinking feces-contaminated food or water.

39. Hepatitis E virus is more dangerous to pregnant women and may cause death.
