The United Nations AIDS Program (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization (WHO) now estimate the number of people living with HIV/AIDS today is 40 million. More than 25 million people have died of AIDS since 1981. At the end of 2007, women accounted for 48% of all adults living with HIV worldwide, and for 59% of those in sub-Saharan Africa. Young people (under 25 years old) account for half of all new HIV infections worldwide and about 6,000 become infected with HIV everyday (UNAIDS/WHO, 2007). Most of the infected (22.5 million) live in Africa, a continent home to only 10% of the world’s population, but shouldering over 70% of all cases and 95% of all orphans according to the UNAIDS/WHO report.Item Perspectives on Social Work Volume 6 (Spring 2008)(University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work, 2008) Almeida, Fabio A.; Smith, Jennifer; Easton, Scott D.; Newell, Jason M.; Clark, Trenette T.; Chanmugam, Amy; Small, EusebiusThis is the full-text volume of Perspectives on Social Work, vol. 6 (Summer 2008).
