Yea mothers and doctors their don't take the steps to make sure the child has the best chances of not getting HIV, from what I as hereing on NPR and BBC with modern technology if your mom has aids when you're born you have a very good chance NOT getting it from her.
And I was horrified to listen to NPR yesterday about how the Chinese are. Man they pay them good money to donate blood, and they take the plasma out of the blood from everyone in the town who donates, they mix all the blood together and take plasma. Then because the Chinese have a fear of your blood being take for some cultural thing they MUST reinject it into them so they take this town vat of blood and shoot it back into them and if 1 person in the town has aids then everyone does. That's insanity I almost fellout of the chair when I heard that. From a town of 600 they had like 300 people infected since 300 people donated blood, just cause 1 poor guy had HIV and wanted a little cash donating blood.
