Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The number of deaths from HIV\/AIDS in Mozambique is estimated to have fallen to 48,000 last year, down from around 50,000 in 2021, Mozambique\u2019s deputy health minister, Ilesh Jani, announced on Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is estimated that in 2022 there were around 48,000 AIDS-related deaths, making the disease the main cause of death in the country,\u201d said Jani, quoted by Televisa\u0303o de Moc\u0327ambique (TVM).<\/p>\n

The minister was speaking during the opening of a meeting of the National Council to Combat HIV\/AIDS, (CNCS) which has been taking place since Wednesday in Maputo province.<\/p>\n

65% of the 84,000 new infections registered in 2022 occurred in women, Jani revealed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe incidence [of the virus] in women aged 15 to 24 is three times higher than in boys of the same age group\u201d, said the deputy minister of health, adding that 28% of Mozambicans with HIV have not been diagnosed.<\/p>\n

According to estimates for 2022, released by the Ministry of Health, around 2.4 million people are living with HIV in Mozambique, with 266 new infections per day on record, of which 230 in adults and 36 in children.<\/p>\n

HIV prevalence in Mozambique dropped slightly to 12.4%, but remains among the highest rates in the world, according to the results of the most recent survey presented in December by the National Institute of Health.<\/p>\n
