This may affect government efforts at curtailing the spread of HIV/AIDS (Famoroti et al., 2013; Reis et al., 2005). Several studies on HCWs attitude to care of HIV patients have been reported from other countries. Anderson, Zheng, Wu, Li, and Liu (2003) reported that 24% of hospital-based health care professionals in China expressed reservations about caring for HIV infected patients. Hesketh, Duo, Li, and Tomkins (2005) reported that 30% of Chinese HCWs were not willing to treat people with HIV/AIDS and 81% would prefer not to. Similarly, about half of Iranian nursing staff were unwilling to care for patients with HIV/AIDS (Askarian, Hashem, Jaafari, & Assadian, 2006) and 84% of Jordanian nurses had negative attitudes towards them (Hassen & Wahsheh, 2011).
