HIV Epidemic in Bangladesh

India is one of the countries abroad that is badly hit by HIV/AIDS epidemic. People in Bangladesh particularly is among the cities (just south of Pakistan) that is badly affected by the disease. In India alone, more than 5 million people were reported to have contracted the disease but the World Health Organization estimates that more than 8 million people are currently living with HIV in India.

The development of vaccine still remains a challenge for scientists in much the same way as treating the people who already are infected with the disease. Prevention is always better than cure and its always important to be aware of the risk factors that will put us more in danger of contracting HIV.
