Combating tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS in Mozambique
In 2003, 54% of Mozambique’s population was living below the poverty line. The HIV/AIDS epidemic is expanding, life expectancy was estimated at 45 years in 2003 and it is expected to drop to 38 years in 2010. LEPRA Health in Action supports the national TB programme and works to prevent the spread of HIV.
Please donate now to support this work. We rely on the help of people like you to make sure we can continue with our important programmes here and around the world.
Before I was trained by LEPRA Health in Action I used to find it hard to diagnose TB accurately, because we had little information about it.
