  1. I am surprised by how many people are currently living with AIDS/HIV versus how many people have died from it. Do you happen to know what the average life expectancy for someone with AIDS/HIV is?

  2. Good job! Your article was interesting and organized. A part I found important was that 53.1% of the people infected with HIV in Africa. It is a great extent/reason to read.

  3. I was surprised by the fact that the origin of HIV/AIDS is uncertain, even with modern technology and the focus on the virus/syndrome. Overall your article was well structured and provided great information!
