The spatial distribution of HIV and AIDS in Gauteng, South AfricaEzike-Dennis, Uchechukwu Nneka 31 December 2007 (has links)
Since the earliest reported cases of HIV/AIDS probably in 1959 in Africa, there has been a
consistent progression in the new HIV/AIDS infection cases. In South Africa, Gauteng, records one
of the highest HIV/AIDS prevalence rates in the country.
The Department of Health (DOH) South Africa conducts ongoing studies on HIV/AIDS at provincial
levels; these studies monitor the prevalence of HIV/AIDS amongst pregnant women attending
antenatal clinics, as a tool for determining and monitoring the prevalence, trends, patterns and
spread of the disease in the general population.
This study analyses sentinel and spatial data collected from the (DOH) and Statistics South Africa
(StatsSA) respectively, and depicts them in the form of spatial maps, and then critically analyses
the spatial patterns that occur.
The research findings would hopefully contribute to the overall knowledge of HIV/AIDS and provide
framework and relevant literature for further investigation. / Geography / M.Sc. (Geography)
