Encyclopedia of HIV Infection: Social Impacts and Implications (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

In-depth information regarding the social impacts as well as implications of HIV infection is provided in this comprehensive book. The past few decades have seen a steep rise in HIV-infections and continuous research efforts for new drugs to treat the millions of people that live with HIV-AIDS. Since HIV-AIDS cannot be cured, but only controlled with drugs, and the Antiretroviral (ARV) treatment itself results in some undesirable outcomes, it has become necessary to create wider awareness regarding the problems faced by people living with this condition. This book is an effort to present knowledge regarding the initiatives that have been undertaken, successfully or unsuccessfully, to both prevent and fight this 'pandemic', taking into consideration the social, economic, cultural and educational conditions involving individuals, communities and countries affected by it.
