Disease and Mortality in Sub-Saharan Africa

Posted June 23rd, 2006 by Tara Murray in Health, Sub-Saharan Africa

A new report from the World Bank shows a decrease in life expectancy for sub-Saharan Africa, due to the double burden of HIV/AIDS and other diseases (kaisernetwork.org Daily HIV/AIDS Report, June 22, 2006).

The report, Disease and Mortality in Sub-Saharan Africa, is the second edition of a report originally published in 1991.
