摘要

An extremely poor and densely populated country in southeastern Africa, Malawi is211u001ein an advanced stage of an HIV/AIDS epidemic, the impacts of which are already 211u001esevere and can be expected to become much worse. Child malnutrition is high, and 211u001einfant mortality, at 126 deaths per 1,000 births, is expected to increase due to 211u001eHIV/AIDS. Malawi's economy is based on agriculture. The gross domestic product 211u001eper capita was $150 in 1994, and about 60% of the predominately rural population 211u001eof 10 million, fell below the absolute poverty line. About 30% of households are 211u001eheaded by women. The population is about 65% Christian and 16% Muslim. Malawi's 211u001ecitizens are finding new hope and possibilities after multiparty elections in 211u001e1994 ended 30 years of oppressive rule. The new government made primary education 211u001efree, and school enrollment has increased dramatically. The basic pattern of 211u001eMalawi's HIV/AIDS epidemic is similar to that seen throughout much of Sub-Saharan 211u001eAfrica. The National AIDS Control Program has estimated that in the 15-49 year 211u001eage group HIV prevalence is 14%, with rates highest in urban areas. There are 211u001eindications that HIV infection may have peaked. Even if this is so, AIDS 211u001emortality can nonetheless be expected to increase for the next several years.
