Read the following text and choose/pick the correct answer in each of the following questions:(Q. Nos. 71 to 75).

By the beginning of the 21st Century the AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) had become the leading infectious cause of death in the world. Since its inception/emergence several decades ago, more than 60 million people worldwide have been infected with HIV. In 2001 alone AIDS claimed 3 million lives, or over 8,200 people each day. Tragically, 95 percent of all new AIDS cases are occurring in the poorest countries that are least equipped to handle the epidemic. The situation is most grim in the continent of Africa, where AIDS is erasing decades of progress in life-expectancy.

The AIDS epidemic is particularly difficult to get under control for several reasons. First, the disease attacks the human immune system, one of the most complex and inadequately understood systems of the body. Second, the group of viruses thought to cause the disease are so poorly understood that a chemical cure is not likely to found in the immediate future. Thus, the biological factors in solving the AIDS threat are highly complex.

Efforts to stem the epidemic arefurther complicated by cultural factors. That is, the high-risk populations (intravenous drug users and prostitutes) are not visible sub-cultures. This creates additional problems of programmes of AIDS prevention until a vaccine for AIDS is developed; education remains the best strategy for reducing the spread of the disease. Because AIDS is sexually transmitted, the world’s populations must learn as much as possible about how to avoid contracting the disease.
