The HIV Aids pandemic is one of the greatest risks the world has ever faced. The implicit consequences of the HIV Aids pandemic will require a commitment from every individual, every company, every country and every region - a strategic response, intensive planning and immediate action to minimise the impact on business, industries and economies. Entire industries and economies will be affected, and no country, business or individual will be untouched: those who are not infected will be affected.

Africa is the worst affected continent, and Sub-Saharan Africa is the worst affected region in the world, with 25 million people living with HIV. 2003 saw an estimated 3 million new HIV infections and 2.2 million AIDS-related deaths in this region. Almost 2 million children under 15 are HIV positive and there are more than 12 million Aids orphans. South Africa has the highest infection rate of any country on the entire planet.

Only now is the extent of the pandemic becoming clearer and the AIDS death toll is expected to peak in the next 10 years.
