| dc.description.abstract | Most paediatric HIV infections in South Africa are transmitted perinatally. Lack of widely available HIV treatment means that most children do not survive to an age at which disclosure becomes a relevant concern. However, with the expansion of HIV treatment programmes the proportion of HIV-infected children surviving to an advanced age is likely to increase substantially during the next 5 - 10 years. A similar phenomenon was observed in Europe and North America with the advent of antiretroviral therapy (ART) in the mid-1990s, and in resource-rich settings approximately half of perinatally infected children are expected to survive beyond 13 years of age.1 | |
