| dc.description.abstract | he Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic has become one of the greatest challenges to public health among adults in Sub-Saharan African. In Nigeria, HIV/AIDS epidemic remain one of the major causes of death in the general population, particularly among young adult. In this paper, we will use Poisson regression model to study the linear trend of annual deaths resulting from HIV/AIDS in Nigeria for the period of 1996 to 2004. The result from the Poisson regression revealed an increase in rate of death resulting from HIV/AIDS in Nigeria. Therefore, there should be increase in the level of awareness of HIV/AIDS and other precautionary measures should also be observed in other to reduce the menace. | en_US |
