摘要
Only 10 years after it was first recognized in Africa, HIV infection is already the leading cause of adult death in many cities of the continent and has increased childhood mortality. This article reviews critical aspects of the dynamics of this epidemic, including routes of transmission, factors influencing the rate of transmission and strategies to combat this disaster.
