HIV/AIDS Awareness (Florida)
When providing emergency medical care, there is a strong possibility that you will contact blood and other bodily fluids. Exposure to such fluids or materials could result in transmission of pathogens which can lead to disease or death. One such potentially infectious pathogen includes the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the virus that causes AIDS. The AIDS epidemic continues to be a serious public health problem with profound consequences for our society. Between 650,000 and 900,000 people in the United States have been infected with HIV, and the disease continues to spread. There is no vaccine or cure for this disease. Now, more than ever before, all our communities face the challenge of working together to stop the epidemic. This course highlights how HIV is spread and what to do if you are exposed.
