An Assessment of the Impact Of Non-Governmental Organisations In Improving Economic Welfare Of People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHAS) A Case Study of Health Need Uganda In Nadunget Sub Coun

Background

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection has now spread to every country in the world. Statistics show that approximately 40 million people are currently living with HIV infection, and an estimated 25  million have died from  this disease.  The scourge or HIV  has been particularly devastating in sub-Saharan Africa and South Africa, but, infection rates in other countries remain high. In the  United  States. approximately  1 million  people are currently infected.  Here are a few key points about the disease: Globally, 85% of HIV transmission is through heterosexual intercourse. In the  United States  for example, approximately one-third of new diagnoses appear to be related to heterosexual transmission. Male-to-male sexual contact still accounts  for  more than half of new diagnoses in the lJ.S. Intravenous drug use contributes to the remaining cases. Because the diagnosis may occur years after infection, it is likely that a higher proportion of recent infections arc due to heterosexual transmission. infections in women are  increasing. Worldwide, 42% of people with HIV  are  women. In the United States, approximately 25% of new diagnoses are in women, and the proportion is rising. There is good ncv.s on one front. Nev, HIV infections in U.S.  children have fallen dramatically. This  is  largely a result of testing and treating infected mothers as well as establishing uniform testing guidelines for blood products. In order to understand  HIV and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), it is important to understand the meaning behind these terms:
