CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Human immunodeficiency virus infection / acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(HIV/AIDS) is a disease of the human immune
system caused by infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). During the initial infection, a person may experience a brief period
of influenza-like illness. This is typically followed by a prolonged period without symptoms. As the illness progresses, it interferes more and
more with the immune system, making the person much more likely to get infections, including opportunistic infections and tumors that do not
usually affect people who have working immune systems.
HIV is transmitted primarily via unprotected sexual intercourse (including anal and even oral sex), contaminated blood
transfusions, hypodermic needles, and from mother to childduring pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding. Some bodily fluids, such as saliva and
tears, do not transmit HIV. Prevention of HIV infection, primarily through safe sex and needle-exchange programs, is a key strategy to control the
spread of the disease. There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-
normal life expectancy. While antiretroviral treatment reduces the risk of death and complications from the disease, these medications are
expensive and may be associated with side effects.
Genetic research indicates that HIV originated in west-central Africa during the early twentieth century. AIDS was first
recognized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC) in 1981 and its cause—HIV infection—was identified in the early part of the
decade. Since its discovery, AIDS has caused an estimated 36 million deaths (as of 2012). As of 2012, approximately 35.3 million people are
living with HIV globally. AIDS is considered a pandemic—a disease outbreak which is present over a large area and is actively spreading.
HIV/AIDS has had a great impact on society, both as an illness and as a source ofdiscrimination. The disease also has
significant economic impacts. There are many misconceptions about HIV/AIDS such as the belief that it can be transmitted by casual non-sexual
contact. The disease has also become subject to many controversies involving religion. It has attracted international medical and political
attention as well as large-scale funding since it was identified in the 1980s.
1.2 THEOLOGICAL PROBLEM
Formulation of the problem is the formulation is prepared to understand what and how the problem under study. In accordance with
the title of this paper, namely HIV/AIDS, So, I have several the formulations of the problem are:
1. What is the definition and the different between HIV and AIDS?
2. What is the history of HIV/AIDS?
3. What are the Sign and Symptoms of HIV?
4. Where are the locations of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in this world?
5. How is HIV Transmitted?
6. How prevent the HIV/AIDS?
7. How the spreading of HIV/AIDS Indonesia and the ways to prevent it?
CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
AIDS (Acquired immune deficiency syndrome or acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is a disease caused by a virus called
HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus). The illness alters the immune system, making people much more vulnerable to infections and diseases.
This susceptibility worsens as the disease progresses.
HIV is found in the body fluids of an infected person (semen and vaginal fluids, blood and breast milk). The virus is passed from
one person to another through blood-to-blood and sexual contact. In addition, infected pregnant women can pass HIV to their babies during
pregnancy, delivering the baby during childbirth, and through breast feeding.
Both the virus and the disease are often referred to together as HIV/AIDS. People with HIV have what is called HIV infection. As
a result, some will then develop AIDS. The development of numerous opportunistic infections in an AIDS patient can ultimately lead to death.
2.1.2 The History of HIV/AIDS
Scientists identified a type of chimpanzee in West Africa as the source of HIV infection in humans. They believe that the
chimpanzee version of the immunodeficiency virus (called simian immunodeficiency virus or SIV) most likely was transmitted to humans and
mutated into HIV when humans hunted these chimpanzees for meat and came into contact with their infected blood. Over decades, the virus
slowly spread across Africa and later into other parts of the world.
The earliest known case of infection with HIV-1 in a human was detected in a blood sample collected in 1959 from a man in
Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo. (How he became infected is not known.) Genetic analysis of this blood sample suggested that HIV-
1 may have stemmed from a single virus in the late 1940s or early 1950s.
We know that the virus has existed in the United States since at least the mid- to late 1970s. From 1979–1981 rare types of
pneumonia, cancer, and other illnesses were being reported by doctors in Los Angeles and New York among a number of male patients who had
sex with other men. These were conditions not usually found in people with healthy immune systems.
In 1982 public health officials began to use the term "acquired immunodeficiency syndrome," or AIDS, to describe the occurrences of
opportunistic infections, Kaposi's sarcoma (a kind of cancer), and Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia in previously healthy people. Formal
tracking (surveillance) of AIDS cases began that year in the United States.
In 1983, scientists discovered the virus that causes AIDS. The virus was at first named HTLV-III/LAV (human T-cell lymphotropic
virus-type III/lymphadenopathy-associated virus) by an international scientific committee. This name was later changed to HIV (human
immunodeficiency virus).
For many years scientists theorized as to the origins of HIV and how it appeared in the human population, most believing that HIV
originated in other primates. Then in 1999, an international team of researchers reported that they had discovered the origins of HIV-1, the
predominant strain of HIV in the developed world. A subspecies of chimpanzees native to west equatorial Africa had been identified as the
original source of the virus. The researchers believe that HIV-1 was introduced into the human population when hunters became exposed to
infected blood.
