I'm learning more about HIV/AIDS right now, and in particular what I'm wondering is Will there be a cure for cancer? As I was reading in my Google reader this blog post caught my attention because I thought that cancer was a part of HIV/AIDS disease.But this blog post said that cancer is a separate disease and it is dangerous as HIV/AIDS.
The quote I chose here is basically saying that cancer is related with HIV/AIDS. it occur with low population.
I think this is persuasive because it has information about how cancer is related to HIV/AIDS. It also explain how people get cancer.
CANCERS associated with AIDS are not new diseases. They occur with low frequency in the ordinary population. Their frequency has, however, markedly increased in HIV/AIDS patients. These cancers are not only associated with HIV/AIDS but studies now show that the natural history of these cancers is altered in HIV-infected patients.
