- W2017069023 abstract "HIV infection and AIDS have dominated medical scientific and public interest in the last decade. In Africa HIV positive women outnumber infected men by 2 million. HIV transmission occurs mainly through heterosexual contact beginning in the early teens and peaking before the age of 30. According to UNAIDS there are 1300000 people living with AIDS in Tanzania. Of these 1200000 are aged between 15 and 49 years. The first AIDS case was reported in 1983 and since then registers a steady growth mainly a as result of new infection with other subtypes and high incidence of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). An individual with an STD is more vulnerable to HIV infection. There are estimated 333 million new STD cases every year. STDs afflict five times more women than men and cause infertility pregnancy related complications postpartum illness and cervical cancer. HIV/AIDS epidemic is increasingly having a devastating effect throughout the Tanzanian society. Virtually all people have been affected either directly or indirectly. Life expectancy has fallen drastically from around 60 years to 49 years due to AIDS. There is also a notable impact on Human Development Index (HDI) performance and ranking. Already the social and economic impact is significant and will increase as more persons develop full-blown AIDS and die. This proportion will rise further due to poverty poor health systems and limited resources for prevention and care. (excerpt)" @default.
