Two other infectious diseases that have infected the human population is AIDs and Syphillis. AIDs has definitely infected the population because it is still a major epidemic now. People are constantly dying and scientist are willingly trying to find a cure for it.

Two infectious diseases that have put a a damper in the population growth have been aids and malaria. These two diseases have been around for a long time and a cure has not been found but treatment to help supress these diseases have been found.

Two other infectious disease are milaria because for one milaria is anti-biotically treated and is only protected if you have an immune to it when coming to a developing countries and since developing countries have the most people, those people are the ones that are most affected by that disease. Another disease is Aids, it also travels and attaches itself to a host. It is also anti-biotically treated but never really gone.

HIV and The Flu has decreased ournpopulation because each infection or disease has evolved and is being more common in our human population.

Why? Because they are easy for most people in the earlier years to obtain since they went through major problems, they weren't able to get cured and it passed slowly and then began to increase. They didn't know of these diseases.

Small Pox and syphilis are two other infectious disease that have infected the human population. Yes those two disease whipped out a lot of Native Americans and Europeans in the 1800's. Syphillis still infects a large part of the population today.

Syphillis is a disease that spreadds all over the world. Infections disease also include AIDs as a widespread disease because they are past so quicky since people do not realize that they must use or have the opition to use protection.

I would say spanish flu and aids. These two decies have had an impact on the population because they both have killed a great amount of people. They were in underdevolped countries and the people were not able to develop the anti biotic needed to cure it. So with something being so new and people not knowing anything about it. you don't know how to taake care of it or were its coming from.

Two infectious diseases that have infected the human population are HIV and cancer. HIV and cancer has been drastically changing the population for as long as I can think back. HIV has a very drastic impact on the African coiuntries' population.

Aids and cancer are both perminate infections that have decresed the human population. Although aids is sexually transmitted and should be controlled, it hasn't been. It is becoming more apparent in our comminities as more people become infected. Cancer is an uncontrollable infection that comes form a multitude of different sources.

Two infections diseases are AIDS and cancer such as brain cancer because even though there is a treatments that may help people from dieing it does not always help so therefore people are still dieing from it.

One of my stipulations would be that the country would have to impose a population control law in order to help keep more resources able to be used.

My only stipulation that I would impose is educational programs to be put into place. These programs would inform the people in the society of the types of assistance they are recieving and ensure they take part in helping the country return back to its previous existing condition.
