摘要

Doctors in Uganda have warned that the country is facing an acute shortage of antiretro-viral drugs. New patients with HIV or AIDS are being turned away from clinics, and those lucky enough to be getting treatment are being given just one month's worth instead of the usual three months' supply.Zainab Akol, manager of the health ministry's AIDS control programme, said, "All the 228 000 patients currently on ARV [antiretroviral] treatment are receiving the drugs. But because we do not have adequate quantities of ARVs, we have first to maintain those already on treatment. We do not recruit new patients at the cost of those we already have."Uganda has about a million people with HIV. Of the total 2.5 million people estimated to have been infected by the virus since the early 1980s, about half have died, the health ministry says.Although Uganda has one of the world's most aggressive HIV and AIDS control programmes,the rate of HIV infection has been rising in recent years. The health ministry estimates that there are now 130000 new infections each year, including 20 000 among babies.
