Attitudes to AIDS Now
Most people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS，but they don’t know there’sno cure and strongly disagree that "the AIDS epidemic（流行）is over，"a new survey finds.
The findings，released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation，reassure activists who haveworried that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances intreatment and declines in deaths.
"While people are very optimistic about the advances，they’re still realistic about the fact thatthere is no cure"，says Sophia Chang，director of HIV programs at the foundation.
The Kaiser survey，like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll（民意测验），does find that the numberof people ranking AIDS as the country’s top health problem has fallen.In the Kaiser p011，38%say it’sthe top concern，down from 44%in a 1996poll；in the Gallup P011，29%say AIDS is No.l，down from41%in 1992and 67%in 1987.
Other findings from Kaiser，which polled more than l，200adults in September and October andasked additional questions of another l，000adults in November：
52%say the country is making progress against AIDS，up from 32%in 1995.
51%say the government spends too little on AIDS.
86%correctly say AIDS drugs can now lengthen lives；an equal number correctly say that thedrugs are not cures.
67%incorrectly say that AIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year；24%knowdeaths fell.
Daniel Zingale，director of AIDS Action （Council，says，"I’m encouraged that the American people are get-ting the message that the AIDS epidemic isn’t over.I hope the decision-makers in Washington are getting thesame message...We have seen signs of complacency（得意）.
