Uganda: Marriage, the new frontier in HIV prevention
In Uganda you have a higher risk of contracting HIV if you are married and over 30 than if you are single and in your twenties, according to the UNAIDS 2008 global epidemic report.
The report notes that although HIV prevalence in Uganda has stabilised at 5.4 percent, "there are signs of a possible resurgence in sexual risk-taking that could cause the epidemic to grow again."
