EXPRESSION OF INTEREST TO EDO STATE AGENCY FOR THE CONTROL OF AIDS (EDO SACA) ON HIV/AIDS PROGRAMME DEVELOPMENT PROJECT 2 (HPDP 2)

BACKGROUND

Globally, millions of deaths attributable to HIV/AIDS are still being recorded. The disease constitutes a huge epidemiologic burden in Africa and continues to cripple the economic development in the regions.

HIV/AIDS is responsible for 60% outpatient visits to health facilities, 30% childhood death, 25% of death in children under one year and 11% of maternal death in Nigeria. The financial loss due to HIV/AIDS annually is estimated to be about 132 billion Naira in form of treatment cost, prevention, loss of productive hours etc, though not curable yet but very manageable and preventable.

In the light of the above, concerted efforts are being made by Government, Civil Society Organizations which we represent, the Public and Private Sectors, Families and the likes to find a lasting solution to the problem of HIV/AIDS

Since the first reported case in the United State in 1981, it has spread unremittingly to virtually every country in the world.

    Irwin et al (2003) assert that the prevalence of HIV/AIDS epidemic in both developing and developed world including the United Kingdom (UK) has increased to a level that is beyond the control of the human behaviours; as a result, the increasing rate of people infected with the HIV/AIDS and the rate of people dying in terms of mortality rate have caused a concern among policy makers, journalists, governments and the Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) throughout the entire world. For example, people infected are estimated at 34 million with HIV/AIDS while people who died is at 1.7 million globally (UNAIDS 2012). This led journalists across the globe including the United Kingdom (UK) to adopt strategies and develop tools to combat the epidemics.…

    HIV/AIDS is one of the deadliest diseases in the world. Although millions of people are afflicted with the disease throughout the world, this pandemic affects the continent of Africa the most by far. In Africa, the disease is increasing at an alarming rate. Even though increased effort is put in around the world to prevent AIDS, this widespread disease has increased significantly in the past decade. The toxic ailment continues to spread with a disturbing force and it has taken a long time to finally slow it down. In the late 2000’s, approximately 40 million people around the world were living with AIDS or the HIV infection, a significant rise from the 35 million diagnosed with AIDS in 2001 (Bertozzi). Sub-Saharan Africa remains the region most impacted by the HIV virus; however, the disease is now growing and spreading into different continents such as Asia and countries in Eastern Europe as well as other parts of Africa.…

    “Two-thirds of all people infected with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa, although this region contains little more than 10% of the world’s population” ("The impact of HIV & AIDS on Africa", 2010, para. 1). “During 2008 alone, an estimated 1.4 million adults and children died as a result of AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa…[that is] more than 15 million Africans [who] have died from AIDS…since the beginning of the epidemic”("The impact of HIV & AIDS on Africa", 2010, para. 1). The impact that HIV/AIDS has had on this region is astounding and caused widespread human suffering. “The most obvious effect of this crisis has been illness and death, but the impact of the epidemic has certainly not been confined to the health sector; households, schools, workplaces and economies have also been badly affected” ("The impact of HIV & AIDS on Africa", 2010, para. 1). Most of these sub-Saharan countries are still in the developing stages in terms of their economies; the damage that the epidemic has done to the economy seems irreversible.…

    Over the course of many years, parts of Sub Saharan Africa have decreased in their population because of the STD AIDS. The African government plays a significant role in the reason behind the way AIDS has spread throughout Africa, as an epidemic. When AIDS was beginning to be well known, many African leaders did intervene and showed moral support for some time. Unfortunately, they fell short of providing adequate resources to the African people such as the drugs, better equipped hospitals and a safer country. Many other first class developed countries heard of the epidemic AIDS and the lack of help from their governments. Many of those countries did not feel the need to educate…

    Over 30 million people worldwide have been infected with the HIV-AIDS virus. With such high numbers, the troubling fact is that 95% of those cases permeate Africa. Obviously AIDS cannot be cured or reversed in any sense, however with proper insight and treatment it can be controlled. The means for proper treatment is exactly what Africa lacks, in comparison to other regions. Nearly 2.3 million deaths occurred in 2003 within the sub-Saharan region of Africa.The efforts have been increased by various organizations and government spending to treat the disease, however the virus is still spreading and kills thousands upon thousands of Africans each year. Throughout this paper, I will look at some of the steps that have been taken in order to contain the virus in regards to Africa, and the effectiveness of them.…
