cancers.People with AIDS get diseases that  \nhealthy people are able to shake off.About half of thepeople in the United States who have developed AIDShave died;no AIDS patient has recovered.  \nAIDS is caused by a virus*that is passed from oneperson to another in blood or semen.It is usuallytransmitted through sex with an infected person or bysharing contaminated drug needles.It can also bepassed from an infected mother to her newbornbaby.  \nIt is not spread by casual everyday contact,suchas sneezing,shaking hands,or eating or working inan office with another person.  \n## Why Should Drug Users WorryAbout ADS?\n\nThe two groups at greatest risk for AIDS are homo-sexual or bisexual men (or men who have had sexwith another man since 1977)and people who shootdrugs.People who use needles to inject drugs—including mainliners and skin poppers—get the virusby sharing their works with other users who alreadyhave the AIDS virus in their blood.  \nYou can’'t always tell who is infected with the AIDSvirus.People carrying the virus may look and feelwell,but they can still spread the disease.Symptomsof AIDS may not show up for several years.Manyremain without symptoms even then.  \nThousands of IV drug abusers already have AIDS,and many thousands more are carrying the virus.  \n## How Else Can You Get AIDS?\n\nBesides sharing works,people get AIDS by having sexwith people who have the virus.AIDS can be spread  \n*The virus that causes AIDS and related disorders bas several differentnames:HTLVIII,LAY AR,and most recenthy,HIV In tbis brocbure it is called\"the AIDS virus.\"  \nbetween men and other men,and between men andwomen.  \nProstitutes can carry the AIDS virus,which theymay get from their sex partners or because theythemselves are often IV drug users.They can alsospread the disease to other people.  \n## What About Other People?\n\nIf you become infected by the AIDS virus you may notget sick and you may not know youve been infected.But you can spread the disease to other people bysharing your works with them or by having sex withthem.  \nWomen who shoot drugs or who live with menwho shoot drugs sometimes give AIDS to their babies,either before or right after birth.Babies born withAIDS become ill very quickly.  \n## How Can You Protect Yourselfand Others From AIDS?\n\nFirst,stop using and shooting drugs.  \nIf you keep using IV drugs,there is a good chanceyou will get the AIDS virus,and you may get AIDS.You can reduce the chances of infection if you—  \n● Do not share needles,syringes,works,orcookers—even with someone you know.  \n● Do not rent works or buy works that have beenused by someone else.Check the package you buyto be sure it has not been resealed.Sometimesused needles and syringes are sold as new ones.  \n● Do not have sex with people who have AIDS orwho might have the AIDS virus (homosexual orbisexual men,prostitutes,other IV drug users).If you do,use condoms and avoid sex practiceslike anal sex that can cause injury to body tissues.  \nAnd remember that you may be infected with the  \nvirus and can spread it to your sex partners,so becareful to protect them from your body fluids ifyou have sex.  \n● See a doctor or go to a clinic to find out whetheryou may already have been infected with the AIDSvirus.Ask for an AIDS antibody test and anexamination.  \n● Limit your sex partners to one.The more peopleyou have sex with,the greater the chance ofgetting AIDS.  \n● If you have been having sex with an IV drug user,try to get him or her to stop using drugs and gointo drug treatment.This can reduce the risk thatyou and your partner will get AIDS.  \n● Don't leave your works around where others c","cbCaicyTeM7OkeV2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicyTeM7OkeV2","pdf",213456,"English","# What Is AIDS?\n# Why
