Synopsis: |
Since sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) facilitate the transmission of AIDS and since, in Africa, most STD cases are brought to traditional healers, this text argues that biomedical practitioners must work together with healers to help contain the spread of AIDS. Drawing upon research in southern Africa, as well as East, and West Africa, the author examines the role of traditional healers in providing health care and collaborative AIDS/STD and family-planning programmes in AIDS prevention. |
