UNICEF Mobile testing and treatment fight HIV-AIDS in Zambia's Mpika District
As part of its HIV and AIDS response in Zambia, UNICEF, together with the government and local partners, is working to educate people about PMTCT, or Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission. It is estimated that 16% of Zambians are HIV positive. At the Keemba Clinic,midwife Rose Namilinga conducts meetings to educate local families about the process. She encourages women to bring their husbands to get tested for HIV and learn about PMTCT. One of the key components to success of PMTCT is for the mother to use exclusive breastfeeding for 6 months, including mothers who are HIV positive. Small rural clinics like this one are attempting to involve the father to make this possible.
