Women with AIDS
For a long time women with HIV were ignored because the focus was totally on HIV men. The gay community was very much in sight and vocal and successfully got support for its cause. Now we are rapidly approaching the point where about one half of all AIDS cases in the world are women. But no one is taking this dangerously high level of infection among women seriously enough.
Women usually have a worse time dealing with HIV than men do. In most cases,the woman is taking care of children as well as her sick partner. She may not even have time to take care of herself. The HIV - positive woman ends up shouldering the family as well as her own personal problems. Men, however,are usually the ones who have insurance income and access to doctors. They get care. Women often do not.
The discrimination against HIV-positive women is simply terrible. They are likely to be more inactive than men in home and workplace because too many people think that women are the cause of the disease. This is not at all true. They get it from a man. They don’t just simply have HIV. Of cause, there’s a social discrimination against all people with HIV. They are scared that other people will know they are HIV-positive and that they will, therefore be discriminated against. For example , it’s very difficult for people with HIV to travel. They are not allowed to enter many countries, including the United States,China and Russia.
The biggest difficulty an HIV-positive woman must face is the isolation. Once the woman knows she’s HIV-positive, she lives in fear that other people will find out. She’s so frightened she will go into hiding, into an isolated place by herself. It’s not at all uncommon to meet a woman who has been HIV-positive for nearly 10 years and has never told anyone, except her doctor. And the resulting stress is enough to make her sick. But HIV-positive women who get support,who can discuss their trouble and then do something about it-whether that means taking better care of themselves or going to the United Nations to struggle for their rights—are likely to live longer. Active women don’t die out of shame in a corner. This happens to too many HIV-positive women.
There is social discrimination against only women with HIV.

文章第三段描述了患艾滋病的女性所受的歧视,但是中间也提到“there’s a socialdiscrimination against all people with HIV”,所以应该是所有患艾滋病的人都会受到社会歧视。本句陈述是错误的,选项B是正确的。
