Every minute a Nigerian man, woman, or child becomes infected
with HIV. Soon Nigeria will be home to more people living with HIV
than any other country in Africa. With 5 percent of its inhabitants
already infected, Nigeria has reached the critical threshold that
can catapult rates to nearly 40 percent of a country's population.
The full magnitude of Nigeria's epidemic will be determined by its
response now.
"AIDS in Nigeria" helps guide that response. Written by dozens
of the country's leading HIV experts, the book explores the
dynamics of the epidemic, analyzes prevention efforts, identifies
crucial gaps, and formulates effective strategies for controlling
the epidemic. Complementing the experts' words are the dramatic
portraits of people whose lives have been forever transformed by
AIDS. Their stories reveal the human costs of the epidemic--and the
courage required to overcome it.
