Abstract
The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in the United States sent shock waves throughout the world. The World Bank said the events of 9/11 were likely to have mid- to long-term negative effects in some countries, and donor assistance to Africa could be affected. The terrorist attacks also had the effect of bringing up the issue of security and the potential threat the HIV/AIDS epidemic poses to international security, especially in Africa. This article examines some of the effects of the 9/11 attacks on the fight against HIV/AIDS in Africa, and their implications.
