The knowledge of learners with hearing impairment on the transmission modes of HIV

Awareness and knowledge of the different transmission modes of Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) serves as a vital component of the efforts to prevent the
spread of HIV. This quantitative descriptive cross sectional study was conducted with 99
learners from three public schools for learners with hearing impairment in KwaZulu-
Natal (KZN). Data was collected via a self-designed questionnaire and analysed via the
Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS).
Recommendations based on the findings of poor levels of knowledge of transmission
modes of HIV were made to motivate for greater awareness amongst these vulnerable
learners / Health Studies / M. A. (Public Health)
