Authorities in Kyegegwa district have implored the ministry of health to step up sensitization efforts on HIV before the situation runs out of hand.
This comes after the district registered a rise of three decimal points from six percent last year.
Kyegegwa district coordinator for persons living with HIV/AIDS Bwogo Augustine says that the rise is rather un-usual, and shocking.
Many people, according to Bwogo, remain unregistered due to lack of adequate information or fear for stigma.
