SECTION A: COMPREHENSION
Since 1986, when the first acquired immune deficiency syndrome case was reported in
Nigeria, the disease has spread like wildfire. By 1991, the number had gone up to 209,
nobody knows the exact figure today as many cases go unreported. At the beginning
of the 21st century, expert were of the opinion that the disease was so nearing
epidemic proportions that by the year 2013 about two million cases may be diagnosed
in the country. In the same vein, the World Health Organization (WHO) report that by
2013, more than five million children throughout the world would be orphaned as a
result of the death of their AIDS – infected parents.
There is no doubt that the virus that causes AIDS, known as HIV (Human
Immunodeficiency Virus) is contained in the body fluids. Therefore , the main way it is
passed from one person to another is through sex with an infected person . Other ways
include blood transfusion an the use of unsterilized needles or knives used for
operations. Many countries are now suffering from the scourge of AIDS . Nigeria , with a
population of over 120 million remain Africa’s most populous country . It is clear that
unless drastic steps are taken by the government, the nation will have a big problem
on their hands.
Unfortunately, despite the seriousness of the disease, there is still widespread
ignorance about it, especially in the rural areas where AIDS IS widely attributed to the
activities of witches and juju. AIDS is a condition in which the immune system in our
bodies which protect us from diseases, usually becomes powerless . This results in the
cells of our body not being able to fight off illness anymore. After a period of between
eight and fifteen years, the victim dies.
