Zimbabwe's HIV rate falls again
When Zimbabwe registered a decline in HIV prevalence rates in 2004, and again in 2006, the news was met with scepticism, but new official figures released on Wednesday indicate the downward trend has continued, with rates falling by 10 percent over the past 5 years.
The Zimbabwe Ministry of Health and Child Welfare, assisted by a group of international experts, based the new seroprevalence rate on HIV infection in pregnant women attending antenatal clinics, and estimate the level among the adult population at 15.6 percent, according to a UN statement.
