Surveillance???? Does this imply or mean the government is kinda watching all reported HIV/AIDS cases ??? Now, I wouldnt dout it ,I just wanted to see if what you said is the same thing I was thinking you meant ??? I have said for yrs to friends and family that eventually HIV/AIDS patients would be monitored and questioned regularly on their "lifestyle" practices. I would even go so far as to beleive whats is said about the New World Order will come to pass.I dout in my lifetime i will see it but i do think eventually there will be human euthenization for the elderly,the disabled and people with fatal diseases like cancer/aids,etc..Some countries already euthenize babies born deformed or disfigured. Of course, to the families, THEY will make us feel like it's the humane thing to do and in the interest and concern for the person to be euthenized.

    It's all very very scary to me!!!!!! Thank God I am still clean and sober otherwise i would go insane!!!!!!

Sorry for bringing up such a horrific thought. It all just rushed to my head when I saw the word "surveillance".

peace and love,

   contry

A new Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) has recently been published by CDC.  Revised Surveillance Case Definitions for HIV Infection Among Adults, Adolescents, and Children Aged <18 Months and for HIV Infection and AIDS Among Children Aged 18 Months to <13 Years --- United States, 2008 is now available. 
For adults and adolescents (i.e., persons aged >13 years), the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection classification system and the surveillance case definitions for HIV infection and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have been revised and combined into a single case definition for HIV infection. In addition, the HIV infection case definition for children aged <13 years and the AIDS case definition for children aged 18 months to <13 years have been revised. No changes have been made to the HIV infection classification system, the 24 AIDS-defining conditions for children aged <13 years, or the AIDS case definition for children aged <18 months. These case definitions are intended for public health surveillance only and not as a guide for clinical diagnosis. Public health surveillance data are used primarily for monitoring the HIV epidemic and for planning on a population level, not for making clinical decisions for individual patients. CDC and the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists recommend that all states and territories conduct case surveillance of HIV infection and AIDS using the 2008 surveillance case definitions, effective immediately.
