BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP/WIAT) — Alabama’s largest health care unit for treating HIV patients has relocated to a larger location.

The 1917 Clinic at the University of Alabama at Birmingham has moved from its old home in downtown to a new site in Birmingham’s Lakeview district. The clinic has more than doubled in size to 27 examination rooms. It also has added a second room for medical procedures and new space for counseling services.

“This move will allow for increased capacity to meet the existing and burgeoning need for HIV comprehensive multidisciplinary care and support service to people with HIV and the community,” said clinic director James Raper, Ph.D., CRNP. “It also allows us to more effectively do outreach to identify persons with HIV who are not engaged in care, and simultaneously do outreach and provide PrEP services to people at risk for HIV.”

With more than 3,600 active patients, clinic director James Raper says the expansion will help provide comprehensive care for people with HIV, which can cause AIDS.

While the 1917 Clinic occupies the majority of the Dewberry Building, Birmingham AIDS Outreach has space in the building as well, which is indicative of 1917’s mission to work with community partners and agencies to support all patient needs.

“This move will provide renewed synergy between 1917 Clinic and BAO as community partners in the fight to end the HIV epidemic while addressing the immediate needs of the HIV community,” Raper said. “I am excited about the decades of HIV patient care ahead of us in this new space.”

The 1917 Clinic has treated more than 12,000 patients with HIV in its three-decade tenure.

I mean, sometimes they just want to delay bedtime, but sometimes it’s really a health concern.

I have never been a good sleeper. If you ask my mother, this started the day I was born. I didn’t sleep through the night for the early years of my life, and as a child, I was routinely up very late. This all sounds par for the course — “My kids never sleep!” is a frequent parenting snafu — but are some kids just bad sleepers, or can children have insomnia?

As it turns out, children can and do get insomnia, just like adults, says Yale pediatric sleep specialist and author of It’s Never Too Late To Sleep Train Dr. Craig Canapari. He tells Romper that infants, children, and teens can have insomnia, and according to the International Classification of Sleep Disorders, there are two parts to insomnia, regardless of age. “The first is difficulty with sleep, whether with difficulty with falling asleep, staying asleep, getting up too early in the morning, resistance to bedtime, or needing a parent to fall asleep,” Canapari says. “The latter two are quite common in young children.”

The second part of “oh yes, this is insomnia” is that the trouble your child is having at bedtime is causing problems with themselves or their family. And that gets to be quite a lot.

But Canapari says that parents might also be setting expectations too high when it comes to the amount of sleep children need. “Your 2-year-old may sleep 12 hours a night and take a two-hour nap every day. But if you expect your 5-year-old to sleep 24 hours a day in a 24-hour period, you will be disappointed.”

My son would take two two-hour naps each day, but at night would only sleep 10 hours. My daughter would take a single two-hour nap during the day, but she’d sleep a solid 13 hours at night. I didn’t think anything of it until I realized that my daughter was never going to sleep past 5 a.m. (And is still, at age 9, a very early riser.)

But it wasn’t insomnia for either of them. For me as a child, it definitely was. Canapari says that the first sign of insomnia is fighting at bedtime, and holy crap we’ve all been there, but amp that up for a kid with insomnia. “Prolonged periods between lights out and falling asleep,” can also be a sign, but night time awakenings after 6 to 9 months of age are not uncommon.

Thankfully, there are resources available and steps parents can take to help their children when they’re suffering. “The first step is checking with your pediatrician to see if your child’s sleep patterns are normal for ages, and making sure there is no medical problem causing these issues,” Canapari says. After that, he says to parents, “You owe it to yourself to try some behavioral techniques to help her — and you — sleep better.” It’s a rough time, so strategizing is critical. “Remember, your child may be able to make up lost sleep in the car seat, at day care, etc. But you can’t be the parent you want to be if you are exhausted.”

Boston Children’s Hospital also noted that your child’s insomnia can stem from other sleep disorders (like obstructive sleep apnea or restless legs syndrome); anxiety or stress; a mental health or developmental condition like autism, depression, ADHD, or asthma; certain medications (like antidepressants or steroids); and even caffeine. If you can find something here that resonates with you and your child, it’s worth seeing if removing that factor will help. Less caffeine during the day, finding out what causes your child stress, etc.

Above all, give yourself some grace. You’re tired, too, and while you can classify some children as “night owls,” it’s best if they get adequate sleep. Talk to your child’s providers, and make a plan. It might take a while, but there is hope.

A raft of new reports have been issued about obesity and ill-health effects. Included within these reports are on-going concerns about obese people and a greater chance of developing more severe COVID-19 symptoms.

Obesity continues to a major problem worldwide and it is associated with a range of metabolic disorders. Definitions of obesity vary, although it is generally accepted that obesity refers to the condition where excess body fat accumulates to an extent that it may have a negative effect on health.

There are different causes of obesity and the condition is not only linked to poor diet and insufficient exercise (such as eating excessive amounts of cheap high-calorie food and spending a lot of time sitting down at desk), for there are genetic issues to consider as well.

According to the University of Virginia there are differences in fat storage and formation between men and women, and this is influenced by different genes found in fat tissue. Furthermore, some of those genes identified are connected with conditions like type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.

The reason for highlighting the genetic basis is to indicate that the causes of obesity and strategies of address obesity are more complicated than sometimes portrayed. This does not negate the danger surrounding obesity, as three new strands of research show, including one of topical interest in relation to the coronavirus pandemic.

Nutrition and childhood development

Part of the new sets of data relating to obesity and nutrition includes a study which looks at the impact upon children. Taking a longitudinal look, a new analysis considers height and weight of school-aged children and adolescents across the world.

That diet is important matches other research, albeit from a different perspective, such as one study that finds that a healthy quality Mediterranean-like diet partially modifies the association between obesity and cardiovascular mortality.

This study, which comes from Imperial College London, draws upon health information and other metrics relating to 65 million children. The children were aged between five to 19 years old, and the findings are collected from 193 countries.

This analysis shows that school-aged children’s’ height and weight, serving as indicators of their health and quality of their diet, vary enormously around the world. The analysis reveals a 20 centimeter difference between 19-year-olds in the tallest and shortest nations. The key variable is with childhood nutrition, including a lack of quality food. This important factor is associated with stunted growth and a rise in childhood obesity.

It also follows that the lifestyle of women with obesity during pregnancy can lead to long-term cardiovascular benefits for their children. If exercise is not regularly performed, the reverse can occur and children from obese mothers carry a risk of being less healthy and also becoming prone to developing obesity themselves.

The findings appear in the medical journal The Lancet, titled “Height and body-mass index trajectories of school-aged children and adolescents from 1985 to 2019 in 200 countries and territories: a pooled analysis of 2181 population-based studies with 65 million participants.”

At the other end of the age scale, severely overweight people are less likely to be able to re-wire their brains and find new neural pathways. This is something of importance in relation to stroke recovery. This finding appears in the journal Brain Science (“Obesity is Associated with Reduced Plasticity of the Human Motor Cortex”).

Too much sugar

A related area of research is linked to sugar in the diet. A study, looking at an animal model, has discovered that mice fed diets high in sugar developed worse forms of colitis than mice fed a standard diet.

Colitis is a form of inflammatory bowel disease. To explore the effects further, the researchers from UT Southwestern Medical Center examined the large intestines of the mice and discovered more of the bacteria that can damage the gut’s protective mucus layer to be present.

Importantly, the study pointed to sugar, such as the type of glucose found in high fructose corn syrup (used by parts of the food industry since the 1960s0 as the mist significant contributor to the effects.

The researchers have indicated that effect seen with mice can be extrapolated to humans, and this should act as some form of warning for a diet too rich in sugar.

The research is published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, titled “Dietary simple sugars alter microbial ecology in the gut and promote colitis in mice.”

Obesity and coronavirus risk

An individual’s health is important when considering coronavirus risk. A new study finds that factors inherent to obesity could increase vulnerability to COVID-19. Correlations in many countries exist between obesity and COVID-19 deaths.

In particular, inflammation in the lungs, when combined with high viral loads of the coronavirus, appears to create ‘a perfect storm’ for obese patients with COVID-19. Fat has high amounts of ACE2 receptors. These receptors serve as the entryways for the SARS-CoV-2 virus into the cells of the lungs.

Another concern is with the higher overall inflammatory state that accompanies obesity, and which primes many tissues to show a poor response to infection.

The outcome from the research is that medications used to lower inflammation in the lungs are beneficial to obese patients who have coronavirus. This may lead to a new medical intervention.

The research appears in eLife, titled “Obesity and diabetes as comorbidities for COVID-19: Underlying mechanisms and the role of viral–bacterial interactions.”

Essential Science

This article forms part of Digital Journal’s long-running Essential Science series, where new research relating to wider science stories of interest are presented on a weekly basis.

Last week we focused on coronavirus, considering why scientists are concenred over the issue of why some people become sicker than others when infected with the coronavirus. The answers may lie in with vitamin D levels.

The week before, our topic was global heating. We learned that as climate change continues to cause the average temperature around the planet to rise, staying cooler in what are increasingly set to be long, dry, and hot summers is a challenge that humanity needs to face. We examined three solutions for keeping cooler.

Made-In-Canada INSTI® HIV Self Test Provides Results in 1 Minute and is More Than 99% Accurate

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — For the first time, Canadians will have access to at-home HIV self test kits. bioLytical Laboratories, a world leader in rapid infectious disease tests, announced today that it has received Health Canada Licence to produce and sell its highly accurate, 1-minute INSTI® HIV Self Tests in Canada.

Likened to a home pregnancy test, the INSTI® HIV Self Test allows individuals to screen and monitor for HIV in the comfort of their own home, using easy-to-understand, three-step instructions. Testers collect one drop of blood using a simple fingerstick method and receive results that are more than 99 per cent accurate in only 1 minute. The INSTI® HIV Self Test is part of bioLytical’s world-leading line of 1-minute tests for infectious diseases including HIV, Hepatitis C, Syphilis and now, COVID-19.

Contrary to the popular belief, HIV infections are still on the rise in Canada. It is estimated that 14 per cent of people living with HIV nationwide do not know their status. The introduction of HIV self-testing provides new opportunities to reach the undiagnosed, which can lead to better health outcomes and fewer new HIV transmissions.

“Ending the HIV epidemic starts with testing. By providing innovative options like our 1-minute INSTI® HIV Self Test, we can help people who are unaware of their HIV status to learn the facts and make informed health decisions much faster,” says bioLytical’s Chief Executive Officer, Robert Mackie. “In addition, bioLytical has received approval in Europe and is currently in FDA trials for our COVID-19 Antibody test, which uses the same 1-minute INSTI® self-testing technology.”

The approval of the INSTI® HIV Self Test comes a year after the launch of a ground-breaking field study at three sites across Canada which proved that individuals without medical training could perform the 1-minute self-test and interpret their results accurately. The study was jointly funded by The CIHR Centre for REACH 3.0 and the Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR) and was led by Dr. Sean B. Rourke at the MAP Centre for Urban Health Solutions at St. Michael’s Hospital.

The study provided data to support bioLytical’s application for Health Canada Licence, reporting that users found INSTI® HIV Self Test to be accurate and easy to use. In fact, over 95% of the study participants indicated they would use INSTI again and would recommend it to family, friends, and sexual partners.

Dr. Rourke said, “We are excited to be bringing HIV self-testing to Canada to reach the undiagnosed – it’s long overdue, and without this option, we will not be able to end the HIV epidemic in Canada. Now approved, REACH is working closely with front-line community-based HIV organizations and other health agencies to develop, implement and scale-up a national (online) telehealth platform with peer navigators to support access to, and support with, HIV self-testing as well as linkage to care.”

The test will be available for purchase this week from INSTI.com. For more information and to sign up for updates, please visit insti.com/self-test-canada.

Epsom salt is an effective home remedy for many ailments, and it is good for the skin as well. Read on the benefits of Epsom salt.

Epsom salt or magnesium sulfate is made up of magnesium, oxygen and sulfur. It may look like regular salt, but it is more like a bath salt. It is a chemical structure which is often dissolved in the bath. Epsom salts have numerous benefits and are known to be a remedy for an array of problems. It contains several minerals and is very good for your health.

Combats Stress

Stress is one of the most prominent problems in the world right now. Keeping up with the daily hustle and bustle of life can increase your cortisol levels and lead to stress. Lack of magnesium can harm your ability to cope with stress. It is believed that taking Epsom salt bath could help to reduce stress and promote relaxation.

Induces Sleep

Inadequate stress levels can also disturb your sleeping patterns. Epsom salt baths help fight these issues by allowing your body to absorb enough magnesium through the skin. The relaxing effect of an Epsom salt bath might improve sleep quality. It may even help with problems such as insomnia. 

Provides Muscle Relief

People who do not have enough magnesium in the body may also experience pain, muscle cramps and inflammation. Epsom salt bath may help someone with muscle pain. You might want to soak your feet in warm water mixed with Epsom salt if you experience leg pain.

Soothes The Skin

Do you have rough, dry skin? If yes, this remedy may help. It acts as an exfoliant which helps soften the skin and feet. All you have to do is rub a handful of Epsom salt into your skin and massage. However, it is better to consult a dermatologist to check for allergies before you include it in your skincare routine.

Treats Constipation

Epsom salt acts like a laxative that improves bowel movements and provides relief from constipation. The salt clears the body of the toxins and water out of your system. You should consult a professional doctor first for the amount you should consume to get relief from constipation.

Better Hair

Do you have frizzy and damaged hair? Epsom salt may help strengthen your hair and cleanse the scalp. You can mix it with your hair conditioner and apply it directly in your hair. Leave it for a few minutes and rinse. Don’t forget to do a patch test before you do it.

Side Effects

There are no side effects of taking Epsom salt bath. However, it can cause rashes or lead to other skin problems for people with sensitive skin. Avoid consuming it without the advice of a doctor. In case you experience any of the following symptoms after consuming it, seek medical help.

• Dizziness
• Stomachache
• Blurry vision
• Irregular heartbeat
• Sore muscles
• Lethargy
• Breathing difficulties
• Diarrhoea

Vitamin E also plays a role in the immune system and in blood clotting. It is also important for muscle and nerve function.

Here are some of the potential benefits of vitamin E for the body:

• Protects against cell damage: Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that helps to protect cells from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are unstable molecules that can damage cells, leading to a variety of health problems, including premature aging and cancer.
• Boosts the immune system: Vitamin E plays a role in the immune system by helping to produce white blood cells, which fight off infection.
• Promotes blood clotting: Vitamin E helps to promote blood clotting by helping to produce platelets, which are blood cells that help to stop bleeding.
• Improves muscle and nerve function: Vitamin E is important for muscle and nerve function because it helps to protect cells from damage.
• Reduces the risk of chronic diseases: Vitamin E may help to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, Alzheimer’s disease, and cataracts.

However, it is important to note that there is limited scientific evidence to support some of these potential benefits. More research is needed to confirm the role of vitamin E in preventing or treating chronic diseases.

Vitamin E can be found in a variety of foods, including nuts, seeds, and vegetable oils. It is also available as a supplement. However, it is important to talk to your doctor before taking any supplements, as they can interact with other medications you are taking.

Liposuction has been around for some time. It is a minimally invasive cosmetic surgery process that helps to eliminate the unappealing tubby lump layers settled beneath your skin. Its suggested when the fat bulges never respond to stringent diet programs and intense workout sessions. You will have to look for a reliable cosmetic surgeon. The specialist will determine your suitability for a liposuction process, after reviewing your health history.

What steps to take?

First, consult a qualified and veteran cosmetic surgeon. Discuss your needs, options, complications, perks, and costs of liposuction. Never hesitate to ask questions and clear any doubts. Even share details about your allergies, OTC supplements, or herbal medications you are using.

If you are determined to go for the process, then the doctor will instruct you about what preparations to make before the surgery. It includes changes in your diet along with alcohol and smoking cessations. Even specific medications like painkillers or blood thinners must be avoided several weeks before the scheduled surgery date.

If you reside anywhere near Orlando, then schedule a consultation with Dr. Bassin. Visit their website www.orlandoliposuction.com, and browse through the photo gallery. You will be surprised to see the before & after changes in the body of their past patients. The specialist will give information on the variety of technologies used for body sculpting. The clinic prefers ultrasound-assisted lipo, laser lipo, and hand micro-lipo techniques.

Who is an eligible candidate for liposuction?

The liposuction process does not remove cellulite, so never expect that it will vanish. For liposuction eligibility, you must be healthy, 18 + years, maximum BMI 30, and a firm skin [natural elasticity]. No smoking is also a necessity. People with a compromised immune system, blood flow issues, and heart disorders must never choose the liposuction process.

 Treatment areas

 • Face – Double chin, cheeks, and jowls

 • Upper-body – Upper arm, breasts, and bra-bulge

 • Lower-body – Tummy, buttocks, love handles, and saddlebags

 What to anticipate during a consultation?

The physical examination allows evaluating the target areas’ adipose layer thickness. A pinch test allows the doctor to get a rough idea of fat cell volume that is safe to get rid of. If the tummy is the specific area to target, then the doctor considers the visceral fat bulk and the chances of hernia development. The skin’s elasticity gets reviewed through manual skin stretching.

The surgeon will also determine whether there is a potential to perform more than one surgical procedure to correct the unpleasant parts. Skin sagging can get corrected with a tummy tuck or thigh lift. The doctor may even recommend a secondary procedure. It will be beneficial for correcting the skin structure’s irregularities after fat gets harvested.

The doctor will even take photographs because it will help in the pre-surgery and post-surgery comparisons. Some tests are associated with the physical condition of the patient. Besides, the nature of targeted areas will also get evaluated. The different forms of tests include imaging, laboratory, prognostic, qualitative, and pinch tests.

The specialist may not approve liposuction in certain areas because of potential problems. You will even learn about port or incision sites. These are locations, where the cannula and a vacuum device that pulls the fat cells get inserted. Several incision spots are essential to lessen the development of curve or shape irregularities.

Some patients desire to have the removed fat cells transferred to other body parts having low volume. It includes the face, hands, buttocks, and breasts. When volumes get added the narrow parts look more beautiful and augmenting. However, fat transfers accompany risks therefore discuss this with your surgeon to know better.

What to anticipate through the liposuction process?

The liposuction surgery procedure gets done at the hospital or a doctor’s clinic. Orlando Clinic is famous for employing strict safety standards and efficient outcomes.

 • The operation generally takes a couple of hours. You will get discharged after 8 to 10 hours. Therefore, ensure to bring a friend or family for the surgery, so they can drive you home after you get discharged. In case you have plenty of lipids suctioned, then be prepared to stay overnight.

 • An antibiotic is prescribed to be taken one hour before the process to evade bacterial infection.

 • Before the patient lies on the operation table, surgical markings with a marker are made on the targeted areas and the port sites.

 • The patient is laid on the operation table in an SLD or Supine Lateral Decubitus position. It allows the surgeon to perform the process with ease.

 • General and local anesthesia is the two options that will ensure a painless procedure. If you feel uncomfortable, then go for general anesthesia as you will not stay awake to see the procedure.

 • The body gets cleaned and laid on a sterile blanket. The target areas get covered with sterilized sheets.

 • A small cut is made with a sharp blade. It gets broadened for pre-tunneling, which allows the cannula to get controlled with ease. It even helps to avoid harvesting the sub-dermal chubby layer that can cause contouring deformities.

 • Blood vessels get clamped with hemostat [clamp] to avoid heavy blood flow.

 • A catheter with a smooth tip gets pushed first with a peristaltic pump.

 • Pre-suctioning liquid gets injected.

 • The cannula and syringe are connected and inserted inside the fat layers lying deep down. The vacuum is started to loosen and harvest the fat cells.

 • Fluids get administered consistently with foot pedals until the surgeon notices uniform skin firmness and distention at the target region.

 • Fluid administration gets monitored minutely to evade the chances of overload. This can create fatal complications like fat embolism or pulmonary edema.

 • The fat layers lying deep down get treated first and then the superficial stratum gets covered.

 • The doctor can increase or decrease the cannula size and suction power based on his/her skills or gut feeling, depending on the patient.

 • The cannula is skillfully moved around to and fro to avoid irregular shaping. The surgeon is capable to define when the anticipated result gets accomplished. They pay close attention to the body’s contour and proportion.

 • If there is a loss of significant fluid in the process, it gets replaced with an IV. [It is a rare situation]

 • The port sites get sutured using absorbable stitches.

 • Large incisions are sutured loosely to allow drainage, which stops after two days. The person will then need an absorbable dressing.

 • After the surgery gets completed, compression garments like girdles, wraps, or binders, are suggested. It helps to avoid swelling and recover quickly.

 • Expect to wear these compression garments for 2 weeks consistently [day and night]. After 2 weeks the compression garments may need adjustment because the swelling got reduced.

 Post liposuction care is essential to avoid weight gain

 Liposuction removes the fat cells forever. However, if you are not careful new fat cells get amassed in different body parts. So, for new shape preservation, it is essential to consume a balanced diet and keep yourself moving around. Say No, to a sedentary lifestyle and enjoy your healthy slim body for years!

LINCOLN, Neb. (KOLN) – National Health Statistics show that ear, nose and throat disorders remain some of the top reasons kids visit the doctors. For one Lincoln mom, she and her 4-year-old daughter know this far too well.

Emorie Quakenbush is just like any other 4-year-old girl. She loves watching “Frozen” and “Peppa Pig” and eating chicken nuggets. What’s separating her from the rest is that she’s already undergone five surgeries. Hopefully her surgery in October of this year will be her last.

When Hailee Quakenbush first had Emorie, she was born as a healthy little girl at six pounds, five ounces and no complications.

It was only months after that when her mom started noticing a few things. Emorie began pulling at her ears, wouldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep and always had red, watery eyes.

After countless doctor’s visits, being told Emorie just had ear infections and antibiotic after antibiotic, nothing seemed to work. That was until Emorie was finally referred to an otolaryngologist, commonly known as an ENT.

At two and a half years old, Emorie had tubes put in her ears multiple times and had her tonsils taken out. By the time she was three years old, she had undergone four different surgeries.

Emorie’s mom says it’s hard, but she knows it’s all to help her daughter. “After a surgery and a few days, she’s back to my daughter. She’s happy, and she wants to play. She’s eating, and I’m not wiping snot off of her nose every five minutes,” said Quakenbush.

From bulging ear drums, to excessive drainage, Emorie’s ENT says it’s a good thing her mom got her in when she did.

Sleepless nights and surgery after surgery have been challenges for this mother-daughter duo, but Quakenbush says there’s one thing that keeps her going. “Faith. God has been a huge part of helping me and working me through this. I just pray, and I’m like, ‘Please give me the strength.’ We got this. We’re going to do this,” Quakenbush told 10/11 NOW.

As Quakenbush did, Lincoln ENT, Dr. Aaron Robinson at CHI Health ENT Nebraska suggests parents get on top of these issues early on. It may help your child have a more normal development and may avoid future possible issues or surgeries.

You may have seen your child experience some issues similar to Emorie, such as hearing issues, chronic ear infections, even snoring. Dr. Robinson says another thing to look out for, especially in younger children, is speech delay. In these cases, he says see a professional as soon as you can.

Like in Emorie’s case, Dr. Robinson says the best options for kids experiencing ear, nose and throat issues are antibiotics and in worse cases, it’s surgery.

Before these become options Dr. Robinson feels like your best bet to avoiding complications in your child is to get referred to a specialist as soon as you can.

Children with these chronic issues can sometimes develop behavioral issues like having a tough time in school or even wetting the bed at older ages. Dr. Robinson tells 10/11 that’s why getting an appointment for your child in these cases is so important.

Kampala, Uganda | URN | There is a rise in HIV infection among older men according to health experts. Information from Uganda Aids Commission (UAC) shows that majority of men between 45 and 49 years of age who have been seeking for health services in the past years tested positive.

This according to health experts is worrying and likely to see an increase of the disease burden among the already 1.2 million adults out of the 1.4 million people living with HIV/AIDS in the country. Victor Rwengabo the Uganda Aids Commission zonal coordinator for Gulu notes that their finding indicates older men between 45 and 49 years of age are contracting HIV/AIDS compared to young men.

Young people (between 15-24 years) are responsible for 34% of new HIV infections annually. He notes that although they are yet to get concrete reasons for the new trend, he says the key factors among them is financial stability, long travels out of home and high sexual libido among men between 45 and 49 years of age.

According to Rwengabo, this is directly contributing to the high HIV/AIDS burden among young girls who target these men adding that it’s the reason the presidential fast-track initiative is focusing on men.

Dr. Hilary Alima, an HIV/AIDS specialist says men still have low health seeking behaviors in regards to understanding their HIV/AIDS status which he said also applies to young men. He however noted that the high HIV prevalence among older persons is perturbing saying it begs answers from the target group.

“The men, the boys and children are a gap and are not testing. We have actually found out of late that older men above 49 years-old are beginning to get HIV/AIDS infection. The data is very clear. We are trying to understand what could be the driving factor,” Dr. Halima said.

He says the index and partner testing where a person who has been diagnosed with HIV brings or identifies their sexual partner for voluntary HIV/Aids testing is positively helping in the fight against the scourge in the

He however says that although such an initiative is helpful in ensuring that men of corporate class don’t miss out treatment, their efforts to scale it up are hampered by limited finance and stringent donor fund directives. Early this year, Kitgum district health officials revealed an increase in HIV/AIDS cases within Namokora, Orom and Lagoro sub counties, which stood at 3.8 per cent above the district rate of 3.4 per cent mostly among boys and men of 15-49 years old.

Kitgum district HIV/AIDS prevalence rate stands at 7.3 per cent, highest in Acholi sub region where some nearly 60,000 people are living with disease. Uganda still registers 1,000 new infections and 500 deaths every week, according to the Presidential Fast -Track Initiative on Ending HIV and AIDS in Uganda fact sheet released last year.

region. HIV/AIDS prevalence in mid north comprising of Lango and Acholi sub regions still stands at about 7.2 percent, higher than the national average of 6.2 per cent.

Dr. Michael Ochwo, an expert on HIV/Aids at The Aids Support Organization (TASO), says the high prevalence mostly among adults has now been compounded with the low response for treatment from corporates. He says many are dying silently fearing to be stigmatised while accessing some of the health facilities providing the life prolonging antiretroviral therapy while others are now purchasing drugs from Kampala or sharing with their spouses.

Dr. Ochwo explains that they launched an initiative last year that provides exclusive services to the corporate class in their comfort outside the normal times of treatment.

He says currently 64 corporate clients are receiving treatment through this arrangement which wouldn’t have been possible. At least 8,706 clients are currently enrolled on ART at Gulu TASO center. This is followed by Gulu Regional Referral Hospital with 6,000 clients and St. Mary’s hospital Lacor with 4,500 clients.
