Knowledge and Attitudes About HIV/AIDS Among Adolescent Students in 15-19 Years Age Group Based on the Adolescent Education Programme: A Cross-Sectional Study Conducted in Kamrup (Metro), Assam.

Introduction: There has been a rising trend in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) cases globally as well as regionally. To combat the rising cases, it is very crucial to understand the perception of knowledge and attitude among the adolescent age group, as they constitute a majority of the population in India. The adolescent age group is quite vulnerable; hence, special attention has to be given to this particular age group to prevent them from acquiring high-risk behaviours.
