The Ministry of Health and Child Welfare in Zimbabwe has carried out a number of surveys in different districts of Zimbabwe to determine the extent of the HIV-epidemic. In Mutoko district such a study was carried out to determine the HIV-prevalence among pregnant women and patients with sexually transmitted diseases. The results show that 25% of the pregnant women were HIV-positive. The highest prevalence is found among women between 25 and 30 years, and women who were pregnant for the second or third time, where more than 35% were HIV-positive. Of the patients with sexually transmitted diseases, 50% were found to be HIV-positive. The HIV-prevalence was higher among men than among women, and higher among single patients than among married patients. For patients who had genital ulcers the HIV-prevalence was 67%.
