Abstract
After a decade of focused efforts to reduce under-5 mortality results have been mixed, with the HIV/AIDS epidemic often used to explain reversing trends. We investigated this assumption by estimating HIV-attributable under-5 mortality in 39 countries in sub-Saharan Africa and comparing it to total mortality in children younger than 5 years between 1990 and 1999.
