HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is a virus that attacks the human immune system, which can cause AIDS. AIDS is actually a disease that comes from African countries and is only found in apes, and unwittingly HIV virus is transmitted to humans and that's where the HIV virus spread to various countries. Until now, there are still many cases of HIV / AIDS in many countries, probably because of the lack of knowledge of the population or because of the population who consider the disease of HIV / AIDS only ordinary illness.
In Indonesia there are still many cases of HIV / AIDS, and in 2014 the Indonesian state got a red report from The Joint United Nation Program On HIV / AIDS (UNAIDS). Indonesia received a red report card because it is considered less attention to patients with HIV / AIDS disease and death of HIV / AIDS sufferers in Indonesia is still high. Until now Indonesia is also a country with high HIV / AIDS cases because every year the case of HIV / AIDS in Indonesia is always increasing.
HIV disease is not only transmitted to adults, but HIV disease is also transmitted to young children since the child is still in the womb. HIV / AIDS disease is transmitted to small children because their parents have HIV / AIDS. However, many parents do not know that he has HIV / AIDS, and there are also parents who let the disease. So that his son also suffered from the disease they suffered.
Indonesian people are still less knowledgeable about the dangers of HIV / AIDS and cause many people are still affected or suffering from HIV / AIDS. And there are also mistakes that are not in want for example, the transmission of patients to the nurses are also common, dikarekan nurses are less careful in caring for patients with HIV / AIDS.
There are also symptoms that can be caused by HIV / AIDS diseases include fungal infections of the mouth and throat, swollen lymph nodes throughout the body (under the ears, neck, armpits, and groin), and drastic weight loss due to the immune system decline all it is caused by the HIV / AIDS virus that has spread throughout the body and resulted in certain diorganic infections such as hair skin tissue infections.
How to prevent HIV / AIDS is with us doing counseling to the community, especially in children of adolescence, because adolescents are very easily affected by the environment. And teenage children are our seed to change this nation in the future. With us doing counseling to the community alike we have reduced the number of people with HIV / AIDS and more we have primarily reduced the mortality rate due to HIV / AIDS.
