Citation

Abstract

Maternal HIV has been a rising issue among different countries. China and African countries are no different to it. The purpose of the paper is to come up with a comparative analysis of clinical, prevalence criteria and treatment for battling and preventing maternal HIV in China and the African countries. In order to come up with the possible solutions, we analyzed the data of China and Africa in graphical patterns to easily compare the situation of maternal HIV in these two places. The results showed that Africa as a continent lag far behind China when it narrows down to different parameters such as, disclosure ratio, mother to child transmission rate, percentage of using antiretroviral therapy or the age at which maternal HIV prevails among the females. The study suggests both China and Africa should come forward, help and learn from each-others mistakes, advantages, disadvantages etc. for preventing maternal HIV successfully. The government can take different measures in this regard.
