HIV/AIDS presents serious demographic, social, economic, and developmental challenges in Ethiopia. The HIV prevalence among adults age 15-49 is estimated to be 2.1% (Single Point HIV Prevalence Estimate, Federal HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Office [HAPCO], June 2007). Knowledge of HIV status is relatively low, with an average of 3.8% of adult women and 4.9% of adult men ever having received an HIV test result (Ethiopia Demographic and Health Survey 2005).
