dc.description.abstract | HIV/AIDS continues to ravage sub-Saharan Africa, and in
South Africa accounts for 30% of all mortality, making it the
leading cause of death. The epidemic has had other negative
effects, which have not been fully realised. Among these is the
fact that, paradoxically, the awareness programmes
implemented to prevent major spread of HIV/AIDS have
complicated the prevention of non-communicable diseases
(NCDs). | en_US |
