NAKURU LEADS IN HIV/AIDS PREVALENCE

Nakuru, Kenya: Nakuru town has been identified as the hardest hit by HIV/Aids in Nakuru County according to the latest statistics from the County Aids and STI group. This came in the wake of reports of an acute shortage of condoms in the country in the last two months though a consignment had arrived in the port of Mombasa. Current figures indicate that the county’s average HIV prevalence rate stands at 3.7 percent a drop from 6.3 percent in 2009. According to the County Aids and STI coordinator Dr Joseph Lenai, Nakuru town had a prevalence rate of 5.7 percent, Molo at 4.8 and Naivasha at 3.8. Other areas are Rongai 3.7 percent, Nakuru North and Subukia stands at 3.2 while Kuresoi recorded the lowest rate at 2.8 percent.
