In the essay Aids in Africa Katz make some very strong points. Also there is a lot of stuff that I didn’t know about aids. This essay is probably one of the best that I have read in the book. Aids can be found anywhere in the world. Most cases are in Africa. This is because Africa has more poverty then other countries. The U.S., Europe and Australia Have less risk because they are all wealthy countries. But the wealthiest country in Africa Botswana is the most affected. I think that aids is a big problem in the world and I don’t think that it will be stopped for a while. I couldn’t believe that amount of deaths that aids causes, and the amount that it will cause by 2020, 68 million. I think that this number should tell us we need to do something about it. Then you have tourist going to Africa and sleeping with a prostitute and catching the disease. Africa has 250 times more unprotected sex then other countries. This has a lot to deal with the spreading of the disease.
