Publisher's Synopsis
Many people believe that AIDS has moved from being 'the gay man's disease' it was in the 1980s and early 1990s to being a disease that affects mainly people in the developing world. Whilst the number of deaths in the developing world do indeed dwarf those in the industrial world - when people can now extend their lives for many decades through anti-retroviral drugs - two important facts still remain: there is no cure for AIDS and unprotected sex can kill. The public health messages of the 1990s have been forgotten as a new generation of young men and women throughout North America and Europe are returning to sex without condoms resulting in an increase in HIV numbers after several years of decline. Senior citizens are contracting the disease they thought was the province of other age groups and other cultures. Direct and uncompromising CONDOM SENSE focuses on the reality of human lives and choices. Boldly and honestly it gives you the facts - what condoms are who makes them where to get them and how to use them.
