AIDS affects a household when any member of the household catches the disease. In many countries, the individual must pay for drugs or slowly die. If that person provides the income for the family, it means the family becomes destitute. If the family provides for a non-income producing member, it usually means the family cuts way back on other things. The family also spends a lot of time caring for the sick member. Life is exhausting for the caregivers.
