It doesn't matter if it's a rural or urban area, HIV can be found everywhere. Most of the time, people don't know they have contracted the disease.

Southern states such as Louisiana, Florida, and Georgia, as well as urban areas like New York City and Washington, D.C., have higher rates of HIV/AIDS compared to other regions in the country.

How has social change affected marital practices in traditional societies?

The literature relating to the social context of sexual relations in East and Central Africa has several implications for the heterosexual transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Colonially created cities in the region still discriminate economically and socially against women. Rapid urbanization is occurring, but migrants maintain strong ties with rural areas. Traditional attitudes towards marriage and sexuality affect urban behavior in the extent of marital stability, the frequency of polygonal and the emotional bond between spouses. Ethnic groups in Kampala and Nairobi exemplify the cultural foundations of two forms of sexual relations found in the region, one characterized by prostitution and the other by small circles of interchanging lovers. The first results in a more rapid spread of HIV through the urban population and outwards into rural areas. Each pattern exerts unique constraints on behavioral change and requires different prevention campaigns.


Which animal is HIV believe to be descended from?

Current research indicates the most likely source of HIV in humans was the mutation and subsequent propagation of a SIV (simian immunodeficiency virus) in central Africa. It is thought SIV mutated into a proto-HIV several times over the early 1900s, but the infection died out in each time until it was transmitted to urban areas and then to the United States where it suddenly exploded into an epidemic.


The yeast infection cause HIV?

Yeast infections do not cause HIV. At least not by themselves. They may however make you more susceptible to it if exposed; but you would still need to actually be exposed to the HIV to get the HIV; the yeast infection would not be the cause of it. When your body is exposed to HIV it might not enter the bloodstream, it may get washed away. With a yeast infection that has open sores, these open sores are extra areas where the HIV could more easily enter the body. Also note that once you have HIV; if your immune system begins to shut down you would become more susceptible to yeast infections because your body would have a harder time fighting them. So HIV can lead to more yeast infections and yeast infections can help facilitate the exposure of HIV; but neither directly causes the other.
