HIV and AIDS
in Nigeria

Two-thirds of all people infected with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa. Nigeria alone accounts for nearly 10 percent of the global population of people living with HIV.

HIV places a strain not only on the health sector, but on all areas of life. The impact on households and communities can be particularly devastating. If you want to know about HIV and AIDS in this region explore the pages below.
