摘要
According to the data in the relevant literature, it seems that at the millennium the worldwide HIV/AIDS epidemic shows no decline. In the most heavily affected area of tropical (sub-Saharan) Africa the situation is getting worse. There is a number of factors which are responsible for this situation. Considering the lack of necessary funds, it is evident that the most important task is a vigorous health education.
