BULAWAYO: MAGWEGWE and Nkulumane suburbs and Robert Sinyoka Village identified as Bulawayo’s HIV hotspots,
MAGWEGWE and Nkulumane suburbs, including the peri-urban Robert Sinyoka Village have been identified as Bulawayo’s HIV hotspots, where the highest numbers of infected juveniles are found.
National Aids Council (Nac) Bulawayo provincial coordinator Mrs Sinatra Nyathi said the three areas presented the most risk to young women in the city.Speaking at Eveline High School yesterday, Mrs Nyathi said, “Statistics show that adolescents drive most HIV new infections in the country hence the need to target this age group in programming and aims to reduce the number of new infections among adolescents by 40 percent in 2017.”
Mrs Nyathi said economic strengthening, parenting and gender-based violence prevention were also part of the services offered to reduce HIV incidence in young women. source-bulawayo24
