Description:

There has been little research on HIV incidence or prevalence among hospital staff worldwide, and even less on modes of transmission among those infected. Recent evidence from South Africa suggests that HIV prevalence among health care personnel may not differ greatly from the general population. This evaluation study describes the significant effect of HIV morbidity and mortality among the workers in Zambia’s health care system. [adapted from introduction]
