This article examines the levels of HIV knowledge among individuals with disabilities compared to their counterparts without disabilities in Bujumbura, as well as individual and environmental factors influencing HIV knowledge acquisition.

The data analysis proceeded in two stages: First, Chi-square tests assessed the bivariate associations between HIV knowledge levels and disability status, controlling for various sociodemographic variables. Then, binary logistic regression was used to identify predictive factors for low HIV knowledge. The results indicate that individuals with disabilities are 2.2 times more likely to have significantly lower levels of HIV knowledge .. View more»
