  • Migration, pastoralists, HIV infection and access to care

    Abdulrazaq G Habib, Jibril JumareARTICLEAfrican Journal of AIDS Research2008

Many of Africa's other traditional, pastoral societies are similarly affected. This paper explores cultural practices and factors among the Fulani that may influence HIV transmission, vulnerability to infection…
