Many Sierra Leoneans question if HIV/AIDS is real or not.

    • I agree with sarahbelle,
      "Great work. I had no idea that there was such wide-spread denial and conspiracy theories, those sentiments are exactly why it's spreading so rapidly all over the world."

      I hope that their denial doesn't wipe out their population in the generations to come, as the virus mutates so fast. They need to change their behavior quickly and dramatically.

      I truly don't think that America would bother to do such a thing. Here it affects all races/classes of people.

      Truly very sad.

    • If you take a map of Africa, overlay a map of areas where Smallpox Vaccine was administered, then overlay a map of where AIDS outbreaks have occurred, you will find the the AIDS outbreaks follow closely the Smallpox vaccinations.

    • Great job... I had no clue that some people believed HIV to be a myth. Here's hoping that there's more awareness, because ignorance will certainly help spread the virus.

    • Amazing. That man had a figure to attach to his remark! It's almost surreal... Considering the low level of infrastructure in Africa and all the rebellions/civil wars across the continent, its astounding to find out that a population can just flat out deny such a widespread virus exists.

      Check out the link with the stats of other places and their AIDS populations. It's incredible that Africa as a whole is in this predicament.
