  • Fighting HIV and AIDS in Uganda
    Fighting HIV and AIDS in Uganda Approximately 34 million men, women, and children today suffer from an illness that was unknown just 20 years ago. That illness is HIV/AIDS. Almost 70 per cent of the global total of HIV-positive people live in sub-Saharan Africa. Whilst in Europe and North America, AIDS is often perceived to be a disease of minorities, such as gay men or injecting drug users, in Africa it is the opposite. AIDS has affected millions of households, and the principal means of transmission is heterosexual intercourse. In the last 20 years, millions of people have died, and AIDS is now the most common cause of death amongst adults in Africa. Because AIDS tends to be most prevalent amongst the working population - those between 15 and 50 years of age - it causes poverty and destitution for their families and dependents. Uganda was one of the first countries in Africa to be hit by AIDS. Originally called 'slim' because of the wasting effect it has on the body, it was the subject of fear and superstition when it first appeared in the early 1980s. In this climate, the government of William seeking help from Uganda took an unusual and brave step. At a time when HIV and AIDS Kitovu Hospital's mobile health programme in 1991. Dying of were still poorly understood, and considered by some to be a 'deviants' AIDS, he was desperate to find plague', the Minister of Health travelled to the World Health Assembly in someone who would look after 1986 and spoke publicly about the extent and nature of AIDS in Uganda.

This report, for the first time, coincides with the Government financial year. 2. From the financial point of view the year has again been one of considerable difficulty since, as a result of the Economy Commission Report, it was necessary to restrict the money available for recurrent expenditure to the same level as the previous year. Although an additional sum was available to cover normal increases in salaries, the general effect was that many economies had to in all be made grades of staff; some important vacancies could not be filled, and expansion was out of the question.
