WHERE DID HIV CAME FROM?

when HIV-1 made the leap to

humans may never be known; most
scientists agree that it was shortly
before 1931 and likely a
consequence of the tribal taste for
chimp or “bushmeat”

Effects of HIV in the Philippines

The potential socio-economic impact of HIV

disease in the Philippines, with focus on the situation
of two vulnerable populations: overseas contract
workers and sex workers. The potential impact of HIV
disease is examined in the context of recent
developments in the Philippines, including the
economic recession, widespread poverty and
income inequality. The contributions of overseas
workers and sex workers are then reviewed, both at
the macro- (national) and micro- (household) levels.
The impact is examined in terms of lost income, costs
of medical care and sociopolitical disruption.
 Related Study
Global Trends and Regional Variations in
Studies of HIV/AIDS
We conduct textual analysis of a sample of more than
200,000 papers written on HIV/AIDS during the past
three decades. Using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation
method, we disentangle studies that address behavioral
and social aspects from other studies and measure the
trends of different topics as related to HIV/AIDS. We
show that there is a regional variation in scientists’
approach to the problem of HIV/AIDS. Our results show
that controlling for the economy, proximity to the
HIV/AIDS problem correlates with the extent to which
scientists look at the behavioral and social aspects of
the disease rather than biomedical (Lakeh &
Ghaffarzadegan, 2017).
