AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Symdrome) is cause by a virus known as HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus.) AIDS isn't directly caused by poverty, however poverty stricken people suffer from the disease at higher rates for many reasons.

Access to education, health care providers, affordability of medications and social norms all play a role in the increased trasmission of the virus.
