A rumor that a full cure for HIV has been developed
Research and determine a controversial topic, myth, or rumor in the field of infectious disease. One example is a rumor that a full cure for HIV has been developed, yet not distributed to the public. Another example includes the use of a “no nit” policy at schools for students with head lice. In addition, according to a recent WHO report, many people think antibiotics cure the flu and that you should discontinue antibiotics once you feel better.
- State the myth or rumor and why some people believe it. If possible, include specific statistics such as what percent of people may actually believe it.
