From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the African country Botswana, AIDS is becoming a major concern. It is infecting a huge percentage of the population and will have major consequences. Botswana is the most AIDS prevalent country in the world. Botswana's own national government is working with the U.S. government to bring help to the people but this is a hard task. One reason for this hardship is that people are simply uneducated and know nothing about it. One action that these two governments are taking is to educate the children so that they understand what STDs are and how to prevent them. They are also having condom distributions throughout the towns.
