Kansans believe AIDS myths
By STACY SMITH Kansan staff writer
Many Kansans still hold misconceptions about how AIDS is transmitted, according to results from a recent survey by the University of Kansas for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
Although most people surveyed knew how acquired immune deficiency syndrome was transmitted, they mistakenly thought that they could catch the disease from casual contact with AIDS carriers of the AIDS virus.
"I think there's a lot of prejudice associated with AIDS. People need to be receptive to AIDS education," said Candye Waitley, nurse health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "They've heard that's not true, but they haven't accepted it as something of fact."
that a person could contract AIDS from an insect bite, and 20 percent said a person could contract it while using a public toilet.
Of the 682 people aged 18 or older surveyed, 22 percent was likely
In addition, 35 percent said it was possible to catch the disease by sharing eating utensils with a person who had AIDS, and 17 percent said the disease could be transmitted by working near someone with the virus. Thirty-three percent also thought people infected with AIDS should not be allowed in public swimming pools because the virus could be transmitted.
Waitley said she thought that KU students were more educated about AIDS than the general public because of their constant exposure to information on the virus.
"University students have been made very aware of sexually transmitted diseases and AIDS," she said. "They're more sexually active, so it may be more pertinent to them."
Pamphlets and other written information about AIDS is available at Watkins, Waitley said. She would like to see a special lecture or series of lectures about AIDS given in freshman English classes in order to reach incoming students.
Although students are becoming more knowledgeable about how the disease is transmitted, behavior changes are not taking place, she said.
"It's really hard to say that KU students are changing behavior in concrete terms," Waitley said. "More students say they have but if you look at the statistics of the number of pregnancies and the numbers of sexually transmitted diseases, it doesn't show a drop."
Steven Maynard-Moody, associate professor of public administration at the KU Institute for Public Policy and Business Research, was actively involved in the survey project.
