i live in south africa, that willhelp very much!!!  But our government cant even get antiretroviral drugs to help people with aids to them, how will they get a vaccine to them?  Our health minister promotes the eating of garlic as a cure against aids and our former vice president said that if you showered after having sex you reduce your chances of getting aids.  Heaven help my country

DPT - an innoculation for diptheria, pertussis and tetanus\n(pertussis is whooping cough)\n\nDT-Td is the diptheria, tetanus (the Td specifies adult tetanus)\n\nAs to cost, it varies from office to office and hospital to hospital as they can all set the amount that they wish to charge...it is not a "controlled" pricing stiuation.

Yes BCG does confers some immunity against T.B, which is a live attenuated that is weak strain of a T.B organism knowna as Mycobacterium bovis , which is injected in ur blood stream, it offers partial resistance to tuber culosis remeber partial resistance , that is prevents appearance of clinical disease in children particularly , but it certainly does'nt prevent infection from T.B. as the organism is different called Myco bacterium Tuberculosis and this one u are injected with is is mycobacterium bovis , so it's related to the other one , and offers partial resistance but not complete immunity .

On the basis that you were indeed asking for websites which the previous respondent seemed to forget, here is one that might provide some useful info.  It is my own site, a little in need of a pruning but has a substantial amount of HIV information.\n\nhttp://www.mark.lineisp.co.uk/hiv1.htm

STD stands for Sexually Transmitted Diseases and HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. Just going by that, you should realize there is no sense in your question.\n\nHIV is one of the many sources of STDs, in this case, the STD being AIDS.

No TB is tuberculosis which is totally different from HIV.\nTuberculosis (commonly shortened to TB) is an infection caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which most commonly affects the lungs (pulmonary TB) but can also affect the central nervous system (meningitis), lymphatic system, circulatory system (Miliary tuberculosis), genitourinary system, bones and joints. Tuberculosis is one of the most deadly and common major infectious diseases today.\n\nHuman immunodeficiency virus, commonly known by the initialism HIV, is transmitted through direct contact of a mucous membrane with a bodily fluid containing HIV, such as blood, semen, vaginal fluid, preseminal fluid or breast milk. This transmission can come in the form of: penetrative (anal or vaginal) sex; oral sex; blood transfusion; contaminated needles; exchange between mother and infant during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding; or other exposure to one of the above bodily fluids.

AIDS is the final stage of the HIV virus. You contract HIV, not AIDS.\n\nAt first there may not be any symptoms at all. The virus can live in the body without showing any symptoms for up to 10 years untreated. Symptoms do not seriously begin to develop until the virus has moved into the AIDS stage, which is the final stage of HIV infection. Within this stage, symptoms include:\n\n Mild: fatigue, unexplained weight loss, mild fever, diarrhea, and sore throat.\n Severe: loss of appetite, skin diseases, night sweats, and deterioration of mucous membranes.\n\n The best bet is to get tested regularly if you engage in risky sexual activity, or use injection drugs. If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact your local department of public health. Free testing is available, as well as risk reduction, and post-infection counseling.
