Resumo: The aging population as well as the sexual liberation has caused many taboos to be broken, and even greater access to drugs that stimulate sexual activity provided for the elderly a sense of greater security to maintain sexual activity, this has generated an increase in cases of AIDS in these individuals. AIDS is a disease caused by the HIV virus that affects the body's immune system and presented as one of the most complex and challenging ever faced by mankind pandemics. Sexuality in the elderly that was neglected by researchers, professionals and society in general, until very recently, today is cause for concern. Based on this, the objective of this study was a reflection on the process of aging of the population and a rising rate of HIV infection among the elderly. It is intended to emphasize that, despite its increase, this segment still appears to be invisible to the eyes of society and the state and that the frequency and quality of sexual activity has not been accompanied by information and actions for the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases that portion of the population.

A AIDS é uma doença causada pelo vírus HIV que compromete o sistema imune do organismo e apresenta-se como uma das mais complexas e desafiadoras pandemias já enfrentadas pela humanidade. A sexualidade nos idosos era negligenciada por parte de pesquisadores, profissionais e sociedade em geral, até muito recentemente; hoje é motivo de preocupação. Baseado nisso, o objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma reflexão sobre o processo de envelhecimento da população brasileira e a elevação do índice de infecção do vírus HIV entre os idosos. Pretende-se realçar que, apesar do seu aumento, esse segmento ainda parece ser invisível aos olhos da sociedade e do Estado e que a frequência e a qualidade da atividade sexual não vêm sendo acompanhadas de informações e ações voltadas para a prevenção de doenças sexualmente transmissíveis relativamente a essa parcela da população.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2012-06-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/567310.23925/2176-901X.2011v14iEspecial10p205-220Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 14 (2011): Número Especial 10 - Eroticidade/sexualidade e velhice; 205-2202176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/5673/7347Silveira, Michele Marinho daBatista, Juliana SecchiColussi, Eliane LuciaWibelinger, Lia Marainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:31:44Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/5673Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:31:44Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
