This book covers a wide range of sub-topics on the issue of HIV and AIDS prevalence in South Africa. The authors provide information in a well-organized manner that makes it easy for readers to find the information they are looking for. The book is divided into 7 sections with several chapters in each section. The sections are: Emergence of a rapidly growing epidemic, The virus, the human host and their interactions, HIV risk factors and prevention strategies, Focus groups to understand the HIV epidemic, the impact of AIDS, Treating HIV and What does the future hold? Sections 1, 3, 5, 6 and 7 will provide good background information on my topic for my paper.Brunne, V. (2009). Public-private partnerships as a strategy against HIV/AIDS in South Africa: the influence of historical legacies. African Journal of AIDS Research, 8(3), 339-348. doi: 10.2989 This article focuses on private and public partners working together to address and contribute to the HIV/AIDS epidemic.

Williams reviews the spread of the disease and the differences in prevalence between different provinces. He also explains that the prevalence increases with age after 15 years and that the disease is more prevalent in women. Williams also describes various factors that can have a significant impact on the spread of HIV, including circular migration, which is often blamed for the rapid spread of HIV. Finally, Williams describes different treatments and prevention strategies and their effectiveness, as well as what research is needed and what steps can be taken to reduce the continued spread of the disease...
