    Author: Coovadia HM.
    Journal: J Int Assoc Physicians AIDS Care; 1998 Apr; 4(4):20-2, 26. PubMed ID: 11365182.
    Abstract:
    The state of resource availability and allocation to combat HIV/AIDS epidemics in poor countries, particularly within the African continent, is addressed. In a presentation at IAPAC's First International Conference on Healthcare Resource Allocation for HIV/AIDS and Other Life-Threatening Illnesses, Dr. Hoosen M. Coovadia presented ways for non-governmental organizations, via partnerships linking government with the private sector, to have a positive impact in this war. The unique challenges that Africa faces to combat the AIDS epidemic as well as some progress are highlighted. Of the world's total 20 million HIV infections, 13 million HIV infections are in Africa, making Africa an important target for the world community to participate in the protection of African health.
