Why is prevalence of AIDS in Africa so high?
<|assistant|>
The prevalence of AIDS in Africa is so high for several reasons. One of the main causes is due to the lack of educational information and resources for protecting against the virus. High rates of poverty and poor health infrastructure also contribute to the prevalence as access to health care and treatment can be difficult in certain areas. As well, the practice of unstable partnerhips and multiple concurrent partnerships increases the chances of contracting the virus. Additionally, certain cultural practices that can lead to higher risk behaviour also contribute to the prevalence of AIDS in Africa.
