Aids in Africa

What I know about aids is that aids is super deadly and thousands of people a day in Africa. Aids is spread thought sexual content and and it cant be cured but treated. People in Africa can't afford the medicine to cure aids so I think the medicine should be cheap enough for the people of Africa. Some symptoms are throw up, headache, skin rash, sore throat, red blotches, and sores and swollen.
