We See Pregnant Women Dying From HIV
- 8 years ago
Mamotsieleli is pregnant. She has just been diagnosed with HIV. If she receives regular treatment she can lead a normal life and the virus will not be passed on to her new baby.
But the nearest clinic where she lives in Lesotho is a five-hour walk away.
The fight against HIV/AIDS has been hailed as one of the most successful public health projects in human history, but Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) medical teams that support HIV treatment for more than 280,000 people in 21 countries, see the revolution as unfulfilled for millions of people excluded from treatment.
The See What We See films reveal what MSF medical staff witness and also highlight proven strategies for community-based care that puts more people on treatment earlier and helps them adhere to treatment in the long-term. Go to See.MSF.org to learn more.
