What are 3 ways that HIV can be transmitted?  4. What region of the world is currently the most affected by HIV and AIDS?  5. Describe one of the major symptoms of HIV or AIDS.

30.  6. What do you think is the best way for the CDC and WHO to handle the current AIDS pandemic? What do you think is the best preventative technique?
