HIV/Aids women & children first. Mother of four, Ntombizonkhe Magoso (29) lies wasted on a bed in a mud hut atop a hill in rural Nyavwini, KwaZulu-Natal. Her mother, who could not handle the “shame” of her daughter’s illness, abandoned her at her grandmother’s doorstep. She died 2 weeks after this photograph was made in 2003 while then South African President Thabo Mbeki was asking if HIV causes Aids.
