Does the AIDS Epidemic Really Threaten Economic Growth?

This study examines the claim that the AIDS epidemic will slow the pace of economic growth. We do this by examining the association, across fifty-one developing and industrial countries for which we were able to assemble data, between changes in the prevalence of AIDS and the rate of growth of GDP

本研究针对"艾滋病疫情将减缓经济增长速度"这一论断展开检验。我们通过考察51个可获取相关数据的发展中国家与工业化国家中艾滋病现患率变化与国内生产总值（GDP）增长率之间的关联，完成了该项检验。
