Most people say that the USA、is making progress in fightingAIDS, but they don’t know there’s no cure and strongly disagree that "theAIDS epidemic is over," a new survey finds.
The findings, released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation, reassure activists who have worried that public concern aboutAIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances in treatment and declines in deaths.
"While people are very optimistic about the advances, they’re still realistic about the fact that there is no cure", says SophiaChang, director of HIV programs at file foundation.
The Kaiser survey, like a recent USA、TODAY Gallup Poll, does find that the number of people rankingAIDS as the country’s top health problem has fallen. In the Kaiser poll, 38% say it’s the top concern, down from 44% in a 1996 poll; in the Gallup Poll, 29% sayAIDS is No. 1, down from 41% in 1992 and 67% in 1937.
Other findings from Kaiser, which polled more than 1,200 adults in September and October and asked additional questions of another 1,000 adults in November:
52% say the country is making progress againstAIDS, up from 32% in 1995.
51% say the government spends too little onAIDS.
86% correctly sayAIDS drugs can now lengthen lives; an equal number correctly say that the drugs are not cures.
67% incorrectly say thatAIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year; 24% know deaths fell.
Daniel Zingale, director ofAIDSActionCouncil, says, "I’m encouraged that theAmerican people are getting the message that theAIDS epidemic isn’t over. I hope the decision-makers in Washington are getting the same message ... We have seen signs of complacency."
B．People may stop worrying aboutAIDS.
C．Deaths caused byAIDS may not decline.
D．Advances inAIDS treatment are too slow.
