RESUMO
Situação do HIV na região A epidemia de HIV na África Subsaariana continua a ser causa de uma signifi cativa taxa de mortalidade e morbilidade, tendo esta região uma parte desproporcionada da carga global, conforme mostra a descrição a seguir. Enquanto o número de novas infecções na África Subsaariana reduziu em 25% nos últimos 10 anos (de 2.4 millhões em 2001 para 1.8 milhões em 2011), o subcontinente tinha 72% das novas infecções no Mundo e 69% do número total de pessoas vivendo com o HIV (Programa Conjunto das Nações Unidas sobre o HIV/SIDA [ONUSIDA], 2012). Ainda que na África Subsaariana o número de mortes por causas relacionadas ao SIDA tenha reduzido em 32% de 2005 a 2011 (de 1.8 milhões para 1.2 milhões de pessoas), aproximadamente 71% de todas as mortes por causas relacionadas ao SIDA em 2011 encontravam-se no subcontinente (ONUSIDA, 2012). As epidemias na África Subsaariana variam consideravelmente, sendo a região da África Austral severamente afectada. Estima-se que 11.3 milhões de pessoas viviam com HIV na África Austral em 2009, representando 31% mais que na década anterior em que a região registava 8,6 milhões. Globalmente, 34% das pessoas vivendo com HIV em 2009 residia nos 10 países da África Austral, e 31% das novas infecções pelo HIV no mesmo ano ocorreu nestes 10 países, assim como 34% de todas as mortes relacionadas com o SIDA (ONUSIDA, 2010). A maioria das pessoas infectadas pelo HIV na África Subsaariana contraí o vírus durante a relação sexual heterossexual desprotegida, sendo as relações sexuais desprotegidas com múltiplos parceiros o maior factor de risco para o HIV na região (ONUSIDA, 2010)
ABSTRACT
HIV situation in the region The HIV epidemic in sub-Saharan Africa remains a cause of a signifi cant mortality and morbidity rate, having this region a disproportionate share of the global burden, as shown in the following description. while the number of new infections in sub-Saharan Africa reduced by 25% in the last 10 years (from 2.4 million in 2001 to 1.8 million in 2011), the subcontinent had 72% of new infections in the world and 69% of the total number of people living with HIV (Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS [UNAIDS], 2012). even if in africa Sub-Saharan the number of deaths from causes related to AIDS has reduced by 32% from 2005 to 2011 (from 1.8 million for 1.2 million people), approximately 71% of all deaths from AIDS-related causes in 2011 were on the subcontinent (UNAIDS, 2012). Epidemics in Sub-Saharan Africa vary considerably, being the southern African region severely affected. It is estimated that 11.3 million people living with HIV in southern Africa in 2009, representing 31% more than in the previous decade in which the region registered 8.6 million. Globally, 34% of people living with HIV in 2009 resided in the 10 countries of southern Africa, and 31% of new HIV infections in the same year occurred in these 10 countries as well as 34% of all related deaths with AIDS (UNAIDS, 2010). Most of the people HIV infected in sub-Saharan Africa catches the virus during unprotected heterosexual intercourse, being unprotected sex with multiple partners o biggest risk factor for HIV in the region (UNAIDS, 2010)
