SUBCHAPTER I—UNITED STATES ASSISTANCE
§6811. Coordinated donor strategy for support and education of orphans in sub-Saharan Africa

(c) Definition
In this section, the term "HIV/AIDS" means, with respect to an individual, an individual who is infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), the pathogen that causes the acquired immune deficiency virus (AIDS), or living with AIDS.
