HIV AND AIDS IN SOUTH ASIA: AN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT RISK
ISBN : 9788131603369
Share Link:
“HIV and AIDS in South Asia: An Economic Development Risk” offers an original perspective on HIV and AIDS as major development issues for the region. Although the impact of HIV and AIDS on economic growth appears to be very small, three risks to development are associated with HIV and AIDS in South Asia: the risk of escalating concentrated epidemics, the economic welfare costs, and the fiscal costs of scaling up treatment. As the authors show, South Asian countries have relatively low estimated national HIV prevalence rates, but prevalence is growing rapidly among vulnerable groups at high risk, such as sex workers and their clients, men having sex with men, and injecting drug users and their partners.
