The experiences of mothers living with HIV of the PMTCT programme in Khayelitsha, Cape Town.

Magister Curationis - MCur / The pandemic of HIV is the most severe health challenge affecting
children across the world and it is estimated that more than 90% of all HIV infections
in children result from Mother to Child Transmissions (MTCT). The global target of
<2% MTCT risk of HIV has still not been achieved despite the duration of the
implementation of the programme and its great progress. The prevention of mother to
child transmission (PMTCT) programme is a programme developed to enable health
care practitioners to provide essential care to mothers in order to prevent the
transmission of the virus to their infants.
