Yet AIDS is now the number one killer disease in sub-Sahara Africa, surpassing malaria. Children are getting less and less of an education due to AIDS snatching the lives of their teachers. Even when there is another to replace one or to they only leave again. this disease affects everybody's lives even if the person themselves have not got it the people around them have and are still dieing in pain.
Children who have AIDS/HIV are mainly orphaned by their families. More children are fighting against the disease than adults. AIDS is passed down from generation to generation.
