Considering the state of health systems in these countries that are not only plagued with HIV/AIDS, but have to contend with poor funding, inadequate facilities and shortage of health personnel, there is a need for a comprehensive approach in HIV/AIDS services for it to be sustainable and meaningful in the context of developing nations.
