Comparison essay Aids and Sars

            
             The world for years now has been faced with many epidemics, some which are still going and others which have come and gone but have still caused many problems around the world. Not just through health care but socio-economic, therefore effecting many businesses around the world. .
             The two epidemics that I am going to compare are Aids and SARS. Aids is a virus that is still affecting people everyday around the world whereas SARS is a virus which the Health departments now say is under control.
             Aids- Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome:.
             AIDS is a fatal disease that was noticed in the late 1970s in Africa and the United States. HIV that causes AIDS spread silently across the world during the 1980s until it became widespread. Some areas of the world it was very noticeable in the late 1990s, but in other parts of the world, the epidemic was just beginning. The virus was first identified in 1981 in the United States and France among homosexual men. Different transmission patterns have emerged in different parts of the world and among different populations within countries; these patterns have also changed over time.
             SARS- Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome.
             SARS first emerged on a farm somewhere in southern China where the mystery pneumonia we know as SARS probably began. But the Chinese government kept very quiet about it to try and avoid making it a world known problem. But when people in Hong Kong became ill a Doctor from the WHO (World Health Organisation) went over and did many tests to figure out what the disease was; now know as SARS, it was then very quickly traced back to china where many were suffering from SARS. The Origin of SARS is still unknown but many researchers are becoming more definite upon the idea of it coming from an animal. .
             The dominant cause of the spreading of AIDS in Africa is between heterosexual partners. In Africa up to six times more girls are affected than the boys of the same age group.
