Some people mistakenly believe that all babies born to HIV-positive women will be infected, or that HIV-positive women are too sick to have healthy pregnancies and give birth to healthy children.

Matsuo Basho (using the Japanese standard: Matsuo was his family name, Basho one of his pen names) was born to a samurai family in Ueno, Japan, in 1644. His father died when Basho was a child, and it is said that the family was not prosperous.Young Basho spent time as a servant to the local lordâs son, Todo Yoshikiyo, who was just two years older than Basho. This was important in Bashoâs development, since both young men shared an interest in poetry.ashoâs influence was already being felt by the 18th century, when the Japanese poet Yosa Buson (1716-48) responded with his own interpretation of the poem in another haiku.
