| The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported 41,287 AIDS cases among teenagers ages 13-24 through December 2002. The number of HIV cases may actually be higher than the number of AIDS cases reported considering most adults with AIDS first developed HIV as teenagers. HIV is the seventh leading cause of death for teens between the ages of 13 and 24. Every year approximately 3 million American teenagers contract a sexually transmitted disease (STD). STD's facilitate the transmission of HIV. |
