Watch the new 2008 "How We Hope" video for the latest on SIM's HOPE for AIDS work in Malawi:

AIDS has swept across Malawi, leaving death in its path. See how HOPE for AIDS (www.hopeforaids.org), the global response of SIM (www.sim.org) to HIV and AIDS, is responding to the crisis and offering the compassion and hope of Jesus.
Anybody who dies from AIDS is left in the disease's path of death. Numbers don't matter.
While populations may grow, if there is a lack of education about how the disease spreads, if there is a lack of care for those suffering, if the lack of basic medical help and household help, then many more will needlessly die.

" AIDS has swept across Malawi, leaving death in its path. "
Except that it didn't. The population of Malawi grew from 9.8 million in 1998, to 13.1 million in the latest population survey of 2008.
That is 33.67% over 10 years. Or, an average of 2.94% per year.
That's almost as high as Uganda, which consistently grew over 3% per year, even though it was supposed to have been depopulated by HIV/AIDS back in the 1990s.
AIDS in Africa is about projections and cooked books.
