Thousands upon thousands are orphaned are stigmatised by society because they are assumed to be either infected with HIV or carrying it. This leaves the children to be starved of heartbreak and rejection, causing them to walk in shame and fear along the streets. This causes many children to die due to wasting because their bodies are deprived of nutrients. Because of societies attitude many children will never experience the luxury of education, or what it’s like to be fully healthy and their numbers will continue to increase unless something is put into action. In Botswana, the orphan rate in 2011 was 100,000, whereas in Senegal the orphan rate is unknown. This complication adds more to the reason of Senegal being an anomaly, whereas Botswana

Judging off the past data from 2001 which states that the annual number for new HIV infections had decreased by an estimate of 34% due to the awareness and treatments of ART. By 2012, the use of ART had increased by 68% which is over half of the population in Sub- Saharan Africa that was receiving the support. So it is acknowledged that the infectious diseases will dramatically reduce, however, the impact of children is still a serious problem. Out of 3.4 million children globally, 3.1 million resided in Sub- Saharan Africa. The progression of decreasing HIV/AIDS in children is slow, declining by 29% every five years. It is still a high concern however the impact is lessened and will hopefully stay on that path (Avert, Impact of HIV and AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa). As for the workforce it is predicted that in good time the labour productivity will increase due to a healthier status, for instance in Botswana the percentage of health workers (with aids) had increased from below 1000 in 1991 to around 9000 in 2009 (Tawfik, 2006). This influence leads to a possible decrease for the disease in the coming future due to the increase in medical acknowledgment in health services. To encourage this diminish rate of HIV/AIDS and its impact on the socio- economic well-being, the following proposals have been recommended (Avert, Impact of …show more content…
As mentioned earlier, Treatment of Prevention is a strategy that annually tests individuals to see if they carry or are living with HIV/AIDS. It’s designed to be a direct approach towards the economy to minimise the disease, along with medical services being provided to help aid the health issues. With the support from international Governments and AIDS awareness organisation, a total of $29.1 billion has been donated to help contribute as much support and treatments of free Antiretroviral Drug Therapy as possible. Although there are a couple of negative outcomes such as harsh constrictions towards mother to child contact and there is no mention of any HIV/AIDS awareness committees. Proposal one impacts Government expenses largely, but it promises a direct technique to fully abandon the disease for good and provide the citizens an opportunity to finally maintain this dominating disease, however, Proposal two is said to further benefit the
