- W86627137 abstract "The latest figures published by the Algerian authorities report 187 people with AIDS and 451 people infected with HIV in the country. Medical specialists, however, argue the presence of 1499 AIDS cases and 26,057 people known to be HIV-seropositive. Although accurate and comprehensive data on the extent of HIV infection and the prevalence of full-blown AIDS is hard to come by, it is clear that HIV has taken a firm hold among the population of Algeria and continues to spread. Extremely conservative sexual taboos in Algeria make it impossible to discuss AIDS whether among friends or in public. These taboos combined with the lack of information and political will among top government functionaries have made it very difficult to mount an effective campaign against the epidemic. Tens of thousands of young Algerians travel abroad annually and do not take preventive measures against HIV when having sexual intercourse. Moreover, the use of improperly sterilized medical instruments, contaminated blood in transfusions, and clandestine prostitution also contribute to the dissemination of HIV in Algeria. Doctors on some television programs report on AIDS, but they do not talk freely and frankly. Instead, they speak in generalities or describe the epidemic in technical scientific language. This failure to communicate does much to explain the lack of success of the public education campaigns launched by government and other national organizations in recent years." @default.
