Claim: Hershey school rejects HIV-positive Pa. boy A private boarding says it was trying to protect other students when it denied admission to a Philadelphia-area teenager because he is HIV-positive.
It is sad that things like this happen but if you look at the big picture maybe the school is right. There is 1,850 students pre-kindergarten to 12th grade all in this boarding school. They all have rights and the school has got to protect them and there right to a safe environment. "Even supposing the chief good to be eventually the aim for the individual as for the state, that of the state is evidently of greater and more fundamental importance both to attain and to preserve. The securing of one individual's good is cause for rejoicing, but to secure the good of a nation or of a city-state is nobler and more divine." Aristotle, in his "The Aim of Man"Now there is a cure for Aids and Hiv but it will never be used because there are those that are to unwilling and selfish to put it into action. That cure is the people with it need to stop spreading it. Now this 13 yr old may or may not be at fault here but some one some how passed it on to him. And the truth is that there is a very small percent of people with this disease that have it from a truly unknown source they did not use drugs,have sex ,get or give blood but still they have it. no one ever looks at these because its not its such a small percent of the population.
If this disease is to be stopped then precautions need to be taken and the rights of a few may need to be revoked.
