service by the government of these nations. Diseases such as HIV and
cancer today are widespread and do not have any permanent cure. It can
be seen as an important aspect for the government of these nations to find
the right medications for these widespread diseases and provide its people
with the right treatments. The social care service needs to ensure that they
are using the right strategies to ensure the individual's care and treatment.

can be provided with the better options and nobody gets less attention than
others. Also, the social services can make effective use of selected experts
of HIV and Cancer to train and work in the partnership with other
specialists in order to make them learn about the cure. These all measures
are going to help the government or social care service to ensure that none
of the people are left being untreated and everyone with the disease is
being taken care of.
