The Latest Saint Benedictine ARV Stats

Regimen 1A – Lamivudine, Stavudine, Efavirenz
Male: 89
Female: 96

Regimen 1B – Lamivudine, Stavudine, Nevirapine
Male: 35
Female: 274

Peds
Male: 9
Female: 9

Total Males: 133
Total Females: 379

Total Patients on ARV: 512

The 3 to 1 ratio of female to male on ARVs correlates to the higher population of females in the rural area and the exodus of males to find work in the urban centers.

Or maybe the females are just more responsible than my male counterparts. You decide.
