Description
Introduction Today, Brazil is home to more than half of all known HIV/AIDS cases in Latin America and the Caribbean. (2) As one of the world's five leading causes of death, the devastating impact of this disease is forcing government officials, political institutions, and civic organizations to recognize the seriousness of the problem. This study discusses the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Brazil by examining both those who have contracted the disease and the measures being taken by the government to minimize its consequences.
