Aids does get an inordinate amount of attention compared to other diseases.

So does breast cancer, especially as compared to prostate cancer.

breast cancer does get a lot of attention compared to prostate cancer, however, breast cancer does affect young women and middle age women and prostate really is an older man's disease....infact, some doctors will say that if a man lives long enough, he'll get prostate cancer...

prostate cancer is also a slow progresser, meaning one could live a long time with it even without treatment, in many if not most cases...
