“…Right now, there is no drug that can cure HIV / AIDS. The government has obtained drugs to suppress the viruses from HIV, so they don't spread more and make a person's immune system decrease and not be susceptible to other diseases [6]. The drug is an antiretroviral (ARV).…”

HIV/AIDS is a health problem and the one of the deadliest virus in the world. HIV/AIDS is still a pandemic that worries the community. The disease has a relatively long asymptomatic phase (without symptoms). Generally it takes 2 to 15 years to produce definite symptoms. The cause of HIV is an infectious disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus. AIDS is a condition that consists of a collection of symptoms related to the weakening of the immune system when the HIV infection has progressed and is not treated properly. It can also be transmitted from mother to baby during pregnancy. By now HIV/AIDS still cannot be cured because there is no certain cure. However, the disease can be controlled through the provision of Antiretoviral Therapy (ARV). This study used data on HIV/AIDS cases obtained from the Kendari City Health Office from 2015 to 2019. The conclusion is that positive HIV sufferers in the male group are 79.41% and the women group are 20.59%. The AIDS sufferers include 73.91% men and 26.09% women. The vulnerable age for HIV/AIDS is 30-39 years old (43.48%). Keywords: HIV/AIDS, Kendari City, Indonesia

The goal of this study was to understand the approaches that principals use for HIV prevention in schools and, on that basis, to offer strategies that can be effectively implemented to improve HIV intervention programmes for adolescent girls in South African secondary schools. The research was conducted in four districts in the Gauteng province: Johannesburg, Ekurhuleni, Tshwane and Sedibeng. A non-experimental qualitative, explorative, phenomenological design was used to better understand the problem. Individual interviews were conducted with participants who were purposively chosen from secondary schools in these areas. According to the findings, strengthening the delivery systems for HIV intervention programmes for adolescent girls may be the key to combating the escalation of new HIV infections among these girls. This qualitative study produced participant-reported empirical data, giving researchers a new perspective on the education leadership matters that contribute to addressing the ineffective management and execution of HIV programmes for adolescent girls.
