Synopsis

AIDS is a global pandemic with significant numbers of cases observed in all countries. Particularly in less developed countries, AIDS may have a visible demographic impact in both the short and the long term that will affect the size of future population increments, the relative size of different age groups and family structures. Projection of the demographic impact is of great interest to public health professionals and to providers of medical care because it indicates expected caseloads and resultant needs for financial and other resources. This publication examines the possible demographic impact of the pandemic and is based on a UN/WHO workshop held in New York at the end of 1989.
