Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!Hey guys,
Im in year 12 and have recently decided my epq project will be based on HIV. I really want to focus on the social, political and also the medical issues faced by people who have HIV, but cannot think of a question where i can combine all three aspects.

Re: Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!How does: 'What are the social, political and medical issues faced by HIV sufferers?' sound, or is that too simplistic?(Original post by fatima12)

Re: Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!"Outline the challenges faced by HIV positive patients" or "What are the challenges faced by HIV positive patients?" if you want a question.
Then in your introduction set the limits by saying something like "I will examine the social, political and medical issues/challenges faced by HIV patients."
Or words to that extent. -

Re: Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!Scrap your EPQ; not worth the paper it's printed on.(Original post by fatima12)

Re: Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!I'd go with this - it's best to keep the title fairly open-ended and narrow down the project as you go.(Original post by purplefrog)
"Outline the challenges faced by HIV positive patients" or "What are the challenges faced by HIV positive patients?" if you want a question.

I'm sure you were going to do this anyway, but it might be interesting to consider how our understanding of and attitudes towards HIV/AIDS have changed over the years. This might be worth a watch over the summer - it's based on a true story. -

Re: Can't think of a epq question on hiv!!!I would avoid being specific with HIV if I were you, you're not really going to be able to do 5,000 words on any topic related to it without far surpassing A level type of content.
Maybe make the topic a bit more vague and look at HIV as a whole, so its epidemiology, future treatments and possible uses for HIV.
