This research study delves into the epidemiology of HIV/AIDS among pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in Atisbo local government, situated in Oyo state, Nigeria. With a cross-sectional design, the study aims to uncover the prevalence of HIV/AIDS within this specific population and identify potential determinants of infection. By analyzing demographic characteristics and risk factors, the research sheds light on the local dynamics of HIV/AIDS transmission and its implications for maternal and child health. The findings hold significance for healthcare interventions and policy development, advocating for improved antenatal care services and targeted measures to mitigate the impact of HIV/AIDS on both pregnant women and their offspring. Through this study, we contribute valuable insights to the public health discourse, aiming to enhance the overall well-being of the community in Atisbo local government.
