“HIV/AIDS has become the worlds most important public health crisis. Approximately 33 million people are infected worldwide; two thirds of those are concentrated in a dozen African countries. The number of new HIV infections each year worldwide is 2.5 million people. The incidence of HIV among adults from 15 to 49 years of age has risen to 15 percent in many countries and is estimated at 30 percent in some southern African countries. Because of the scale of this disease, it threatens the political stability of the affected countries and their neighbors, and undermines their prospects for prosperity.”
