Aids usually kills a victim within 10 years. usually because people who fall victim to aids don't actually die from AIDS, AIDs weakens one's immune system making it difficult for the victim of aids to survive an illness and will eventually die from not being able to combat an illness.

Magic Johnson announced in 1991 that he was HIV-positive. How he's survived 18 years with HIV is a mystery to basically everyone. I seriously wonder if he was misdiagnosed, because most people who contract HIV die of AIDS within 2 years or so, tops.

Do Gay people have a higher percentage of std's and aids in the US?
Gay individuals are at a higher risk for certain STDs, including HIV/AIDS, due to various factors like stigma, limited access to healthcare, and riskier sexual behaviors. However, not all gay people have higher rates of STDs and AIDS; rather, it is about higher risk factors within certain populations. It's important to promote inclusive sexual health education, access to healthcare, and destigmatization to address these health disparities.

How do people get AIDS?
By having sexual intercourse without protection. People can get AIDS by sexual intercourse or even open wound to open wound with a person who has AIDS. That being one of the reasons why doctors do not reuse needles and wear gloves. Other reasons are for their own safety and the patients safety. Blood is normally tested when donating or receiving blood but you can contract AIDS from the transfer of blood. AIDS is also the progressed stage of HIV. Not everyone that has HIV progresses to AIDS though (being the reason for the term "HIV/AIDS"). So it is possible to contract HIV then it to progress to AIDS.
