eported for the household members during the year preceding the date of interview. These are presented in the Tables 7.1 and 7.2. The tables clearly indicate that the burden of non-hospitalised as well as hospitalised illnesses is very heavy on HIV households in comparison with non-HIV households. In the case of nonhospitalised illnesses, the prevalence rate of illnesses in the age groups of 0-14 and of 15-59 is high for HIV households; the prevalence rate in the age group of 60 years and above is slightly higher in the case of non-HIV households. In the case of hospitalised illnesses, the reported number of cases is higher for HIV households for all age groups. What stands out is that in the age group of 15-59 which comprises the largest section of PLWHA, the burden on HIV households is nearly three and a half times that on non-HIV households with respect to non-hospitalised illness and is about five times greater in the case of hospitalised illnesses. On the whole, both, the rate of illness and the number of hospitalisation cases, are lesser for women than for men in both types of households, the exception being the age group of 0-14 in HIV households and that of 60+ in both HIV and non-HIV households.

7.1.2 Prevalence rates of illnesses for PLWHA The prevalence rates for hospitalised and non-hospitalised illnesses are calculated for the PLWHA on the basis of the stage of their infection and the number of years since the infection was detected. The WHO classifies the HIV infection into four clinical stages based on the diseases and the performance scale. At stage I, it is asymptomatic and the individual would be able to carry on normal activities. At the clinical stage II, it is symptomatic (with symptoms like weight loss of 5 years 1,294 735 34 All 1,743 906 478 Impact of HIV and AIDS on the Health 91
