It adopts an historical analysis by firstly focusing on the general position of the right to health at the international level. The article later centres its discussion on the international instruments on the right to health to people with HIV and AIDS. Having highlighted international position of the right to health, the study concentrates its discussion by providing, albeit in summary, the evolution and development of Tanzanian health system. It informs the legal position of the health system and submits on how the right to health is reflected in the Tanzania constitution. It later sets a specific focus on the accessibility of the right to health to people with HIV and AIDS in the country. | en_US |
