Under-reporting of HIV-related and AIDS-related deaths is a major problem in South Africa, with only 27.9% of documented HIV-related deaths in medical records reported as such in the official cause of death data. The legacy of AIDS denialism in South Africa, confidentiality concerns, and anticipated stigma appear to have created a culture of not recording HIV as an underlying cause on the official medical certificate of death. Inaccurate statistics could affect resource allocation for the epidemic.
在南非，与艾滋病毒相关和与艾滋病相关的死亡报告不足是一个主要问题，在医疗记录中有记录的与艾滋病毒相关的死亡中，只有27.9%在官方死亡原因数据中被如此报告。南非否认艾滋病的遗风、对保密性的担忧以及预期的污名化似乎营造了一种不在官方死亡医学证明上将艾滋病毒列为根本死因的文化。不准确的统计数据可能会影响针对该流行病的资源分配。
