This paper discusses the economic impact of HIV-AIDS. It begins by evaluating the strengths and limitations of existing methodologies for measuring the impact of disease burdens generally and of HIV-AIDS in particular. It then traces the overall macroeconomic impact of the disease, followed by an in-depth analysis of its impact on households for both current and future generations, as well as other effects on the economy. Finally, it looks at costs to future generations and concludes with an analysis of the economics of prevention and treatment.
