type: CreativeWork
description: HRQOL of HAART recipients at the Kagera region hospital was generally lower than that of the general population. However, their general health perceptions and mental health status were comparable to those of the general population, suggesting effectiveness of HAART in improving some subjective experiences of HIV morbidity. Chronic diseases were the main factor negatively affecting HRQOL of recipients.
