Care and Support for People with HIV and AIDSPaperback, 23 December 2010

HIV and AIDS remain a major problem to poor countries of the world. While some die daily from AIDS, others who are merely infected with the HIV contend with the twin burden of stigma and fear of death. These problems are compounded if there is no care and support to people with HIV and AIDS. Moreover, an assessment of carers In Sierra Leone, showed that they were 55 percent efficient in providing much needed care for people living with HIV and AIDS, and much of the inefficiencies observed were logistics related.
