Answer 1

This answer explains how the understanding and management of HIV/AIDS has evolved over time, the initial name given to HIV/AIDS, when global awareness of the epidemic increased, the fourth most common cause of death on Earth, the genetic mutation associated with cured AIDS, and the percentage of people with AIDS currently being treated.

Step-by-step explanation:

From its transmission in the Democratic Republic of Congo in the 1920s to the current status of treatment and genetic analysis, our understanding and management of HIV/AIDS has evolved significantly. The initial name given to HIV/AIDS when it was first recognized in the US in the 1980s was AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). Global awareness of the HIV/AIDS epidemic increased significantly in the 1980s and 1990s.

In the 2000s, HIV/AIDS became the fourth most common cause of death on Earth. The genetic mutation associated with the only known case of cured AIDS is the CCR5-Δ32 mutation. Currently, around 67% of people with AIDS are being treated with ART (Antiretroviral Therapy).
