PIP: International assistance for prevention of HIV infections has been requested jointly by the Southern African Frontline States and the Global Coalition for Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa has had more AIDS victims than anywhere else in the world.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 71% of cases worldwide are transmitted by heterosexual sex, 7% through injections or drug use, 5% by blood transfusion, and 15% through homosexual behavior. In Uganda, an estimated 1 out of every 6 adults is HIV-positive. The expectation by WHO is that 10-15 million children worldwide will lose both or at least one parent to AIDS by the year 2000. An extreme example was of a Ugandan grandmother who had lost 6 children to AIDS and cared for her 25 grandchildren. The consequences are far reaching. there is the cost of funerals, which many poor can not afford; there are orphans, lack of caretakers or overwhelmed caretakers, loss of productive workers, and drains on health services.
