Aids Condoms and Carnival is about low income countries that are suffering from AIDS and HIV. It is hard for the government to give them help because the resident might not want to or because some of the help is too expensive. In India they are doing a program that gives free condoms at Barber shops because it is the best place for the citizens to go and talk about their personal things. In my opinion condoms are a protector of death because it can protect you from a disease that is going to kill you. 1. Comment on the Brazilian and Indian governments’ strategies for the prevention of AIDS via the marketing of condoms.
The Government strategies for the prevention of AIDS in Brazil and India is very good. They are trying everything they can so the resident can get protected. The only thing is that they should make condoms cheaper for low income families. It is a necessity for the two countries. 2. How is the AIDS problem different in the United States compared with Brazil and India?
In my opinion The United States had more knowledge and are not afraid to go buy condoms. They are more educated in the area of HIV and AIDS. Of course not all Americans are like this but the majority are concern about using a condom especially women in my personal opinion. 3. Would the approaches described in Brazil and India work in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes, I think we love free things if they would put condoms at barber shop guys would take it. Condoms are a bit over price for the lower income families but it is a necessity for them as well. 4. Suggest additional ways that London International Group could promote the prevention of AIDS through the use of condoms worldwide.
I think the best idea is to advertise with a celebrity young people need a popular face that is not afraid of buying condoms and being safe. For older generations I would say sports commercial. 5. Do you think it would be a good idea for Coke and Pepsi to participate in a

    Our second team project answers five questions about Case Study #2, Preventing HIV/AIDS and Sexually Transmitted Infections in Thailand and Chapter 10, Introduction to Global Health. This project will talk about the characteristics of the high-risk population that permitted this intervention to work and the implications of this for replication in other settings. It will explain why Thailand is a model for programs in other countries. Since cost-effectiveness assessment was never done for this program, it will evaluate the assessments that should have taken into account in terms of costs measured. Furthermore, current challenges that the Thailand AIDS program face will be discussed. Lastly, it will talk about other national experiences in AIDS prevention that have been cited in the popular press as “success” and the evidence found in scientific literature about the effectiveness of these programs.…

    The needle exchange program is very vital, and throughout this paper I will discuss the pros and cons about the program and I will discuss the reasons surrounding why the program was started. AIDS has been a growing epidemic through the 1990’s and it was estimated by the World Health Organization that the number of people infected with HIV or AIDS would reach thirty to forty million individuals by the year 2000 if nothing was done (Health and Disease). In Africa and parts of Asia, heterosexual sex was the primary factor in the spread of HIV, but in the United States and Europe, intravenous drug use was one of the leading factors in the spread of HIV/AIDS. The government decided that something needed to be done, so they created AIDS education programs, and they put into operation the use of needle exchange programs to help reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS.…

    According to the Center for Disease Control, there are approximately nineteen million new cases of sexually transmitted diseases reported every year. While this number seems astounding, it is more surprising that nearly half of those instances occur in the 15-25 year age group. Furthermore, nearly 300,000 unplanned teenage pregnancies arise mostly because of poor or no condom use (Ventura 53). Condom use has proven to be a very effective method to prevent pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases, if condoms are used properly. Currently, there is much debate being stirred up as to whether or not condoms should be distributed in public school systems. While many look at the statistics in shock, and openly embrace the idea of offering free contraception to teenagers, there is a strong opposition as well. Those who stand against condom distribution believe that condom distribution is a way of promoting sexual activity, and believe in the teaching of abstinence-only education in the schools. The habits taught and promoted during teen years will be long lasting. Therefore, with proper education and the distribution of free contraception, there will be prevention of poor sexual behavior in that particular age group and, over time, in older age groups as well.…

    In 1992, 20% of Botswana, Africa was infected with HIV-AIDS. In 1995, 1/3 of the country was infected. Today over 40% of Botswana is infected with HIV-AIDS, and these numbers continue to increase (Epstlen 70). The rest of Africa is mimicking these same numbers as infection rates continue to rise. Of the 27 million infected in Africa, 3.2 million were new cases diagnosed in 2003, and over 2.3 million people died in Africa because of HIV-AIDS last year (Frederickson and Kanabus HIV 1). Such numbers are astronomical compared to the rest of the world. In the United States less than 1% of the population is infected; in Russia and India the numbers also match the United States. In Thailand, where it is claimed to be more corrupted in sex and drug trades and have even fewer anti-AIDS efforts than in Africa, the infection rates are…
