Illnesses and addictions


In this village of 100 people
26 people would smoke
1 person would have HIV
14 people would be obese

What would happen because of the


illnesses and addictions?
HIV is contagious through blood transfusions, bodily fluids, sexual
contact, sharing needles (for drug use), but it is not airborne and you
wont get it through shaking hands or hugging someone with HIV. So it
isnt really a threat if you know WHO the one person in the village with
HIV is.
Smokers most of the time rationalize their addiction by assuming they
are only hurting themselves. However this is not true, second hand
smoking also known as passive smoking is very harmful to the people
around you such as: friends, children, co-workers and family.
