Official data shows
According to 39Health.com, the number of people living with HIV over the age of 50 rose from 5.4 million in 2015 to 8.1 million in 2020, according to 39Health.com.
The way things are going
Behind these data, there are concrete and real cases. Some elderly people have contracted the virus during unsafe sex due to a lack of correct understanding of HIV/AIDS, and some elderly people have not taken effective protective measures when seeking emotional comfort due to loneliness and other reasons in their later life. All of this shows that we are not paying enough attention to the health of older people.
How to deal with this
We cannot ignore the existence of this problem, let alone turn a blind eye to it. Behind every elderly person infected with AIDS, there is an untold story, and they all have their pain and helplessness. We should treat them with tolerance and understanding, so that they can feel the warmth and care of society. Let's take a look at what netizens have to say about it.
