- W4301804569 abstract "After a relatively slow start, South Africa now has one of the fastest-growing HIV infection rates in the world. Estimates vary, but a recent article in the South African Medical Journal concluded that approximately 14% of the country's adult population is HIV positive; the official figure is 10%. In KwaZulu-Natal province, the region of South Africa with the highest incidence of AIDS, because of AIDS, the number of deaths now exceeds the number of births. The level of HIV infection is probably highest among migrant workers, although people from all walks of life are affected. For example, a survey conducted in April 1999 found that 88 of 385 University of Durban-Westville students were HIV positive. Recently, Judge Edwin Cameron, a gay activist and one of the country's most eminent legal scholars, publicly stated in an interview that he is HIV positive. Government response to the epidemic has been lackluster and controversial. The most recent controversies are centered around the administration of AZT and 3TC, and making AIDS a notifiable disease. The government has refused to purchase AZT and 3TC for pregnant HIV-positive women, despite research indicating that the administration of these drugs just before and during birth, and for 1 week postpartum reduces the risk of an infant being born with HIV by 50%." @default.
