Paragraph on Aids, A Fatal Disease

AIDS, or Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, is a serious sickness caused by a virus called HIV. This virus weakens the body's natural defense against infections and often leads to death. If someone's bodily fluids come into contact with the fluids of an HIV-infected person, they can also become infected and develop AIDS. However, having HIV doesn't automatically mean a person has AIDS, even though some people mistakenly say so. In some cases, it can take ten years or more for HIV infection to progress to AIDS. People who have multiple sexual partners or use drugs are at higher risk of getting this disease. To prevent it, it's important to avoid having sex with many people and if someone has HIV, they shouldn't donate blood or share needles without disposable syringes. Unfortunately, more than 50% of people who contract AIDS will die from it. There isn't a specific treatment for this disease, so prevention is the only way to protect ourselves from this terrible illness.
