Summary: The article was talking about how kids with HIV don't recieve appropriate levels of drugs they become immune depressed. The study that was held showed how kids with HIV are more exceptable to getting other diseases. Measles is a major disease where antibodies can't heavily guard because of the low levels. So overall the topic was that kids are not responding well to the medicine and that scientist need to find out what is going wrong so they can fix it.
Questions: What are the symptoms of this disease? HIV affects the immune system and completely shuts it down
How is this disease passed from person to person? Sexual contact, and blood transfusion
List three things you learned from this article in your own words. That kids are having a hard time since they are affected, that kids are more exceptible to drugs if they have HIV, and That scientists have a tough job ahead of them to find the cure for this problem.
What impact does this disease have on the US economy? It has non-profitable organizations helping out to find a cure. Also some of the economy money goes toward reasearch efforts.
