ABSTRACT
HIV/AIDS has the potential to impose a major economic impact on Lesotho. The total long run economic impact of HIV/AIDS between the years 1993 and 1998 is estimated to total M522;035;686 in constant 1992 prices. This figure includes the total direct medical costs (M66;497;825); the total direct non-personal costs (M48;460;02); and the total indirect costs (M437;077;840). With the rapid increase in HIV infection in Lesotho; the cost of the pandemic promises to spiral. Its cost would not only impact health care services; but many other sectors of the economy as well
