The training held was to mentor them on the significance of knowing their HIV\/AIDS to enable them know when and how to breastfeed their children with an aim to avoid transmission\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Flora lamented that women with HIV often find themselves stigmatised, reducing their hope in taking ARVs which play a great role in reducing the level of the virus in the body.<\/p>\n<p>She urged infected mothers and others at homes to be close to medical attention and proper feeding in order to remain healthy.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018\u2019Most infected women tend to be stigmatised due to the stress caused by the infection not knowing that ARVs play a significant role in reducing the rate of the virus in the body. Infected mothers should be paid a close attention in taking drugs and feeding\u2019\u2019 She said<\/p>\n<p>Flora furthermore advised mothers, especially lactating ones to go for general check up to enable them know their health statuses.<\/p>\n<p>However Robert Anyama, a senior clinical officer, reiterated the awareness was not only focused on HIV\/AIDS alone rather in general components.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that the positive impact of the training to mothers was to enable them to know their medical statuses for their health benefits as well as their children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe positive impact of the training was to help mothers to know their health statuses as well as their children. The awareness was not focused on HIV\/AIDS alone rather on the complexity of other health complications\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Robert jagged out that the training is organised annually through the use of tools as teaching pictorial schemes to enable women to understand it pictorially.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
