- Mathato Notsi, 29, discovered that she and her baby, Mpho, were HIV positive at an examination six weeks after giving birth. She did not test for HIV when she was pregnant, so neither she nor the baby received the drugs Nevirapine or AZT to prevent HIV transmission at birth. As a result, the baby was born with the virus. Anti-retroviral medicines are only available for 25 per cent of children in Lesotho. Mathato's baby is one of the lucky few receiving this life-saving treatment.Photographer Gideon Mendel travelled to Lesotho in November 2007 and the resulting Lesotho Voices films, images and words tell the personal stories of several women there. The women are from different regions of the country, all are living with HIV. Some of them have benefited from PMTCT. Others have suffered without access to these vital services.
