AIDS update 2002. |
As
the world enters the third decade of the AIDS epidemic, the
evidence of its impact is undeniable. Wherever the epidemic
has spread unchecked, it is robbing countries of the resources
and capacities on which human security and development depend.
In some regions, HIV/AIDS, in combination with other crises,
is driving ever-larger parts of nations towards destitution.

Dead reckoning - the need for data on mortality rates in
Africa |
What do we
know about mortality rates in Africa? How has HIV affected
death rates? Do we have enough data to answer these questions?
Research from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical
Medicine investigates mortality rates in Africa. More and
better demographic data are essential to help governments
develop policy in response to the HIV epidemic. |

Global
AIDS, Myths and Facts
|
Myth: The best way to control AIDS in the developing
world is by putting all available resources into stronger
prevention programs. In developing countries, costly treatment
for people already infected with HIV should wait until
prevention programs have been fully funded and deployed.

HIV Testing
Among Pregnant Women --- United States and Canada, 1998--2001 |
Among
the three prenatal HIV testing approaches assessed in this
report, opt-out voluntary testing and the mandatory testing of
newborns appear to be associated with the highest testing
rates. On the basis of the chart-review methodology, prenatal
testing rates were higher in Tennessee, which uses the opt-out
approach, than rates in states using the opt-in approach and
similar to rates achieved with mandatory newborn testing in
New York during the same time period |

Preventing and Mitigating AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa: Research
and Data Priorities for the Social and Behavioral Sciences |
Moreover,
given the chronic underreporting and under-diagnosis in
developing countries, the actual number of AIDS cases may be
four times as high. The official statistics also do not
reflect the millions of people who are infected with the human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV) but have yet to develop symptoms
of AIDS |

STRATEGIES OF CIVIL SOCIETY TO ADDRESS AIDS IN ASIA: EMPHASIS ON
THE SEX SECTOR |
Asia has
about 3.3 billion people representing 60% of the world’s
population, with a large population of children and the poor. It
also has the world’s two most populous nations and systems of
government that range from constitutional monarchies to
republics and dictatorship. It is a continent of diverse people
speaking hundreds of languages and subscribing to different
cultures, beliefs and religions, living in a plethora of
political, economic and social situations. The diversity in the
continent is also mirrored within the countries. The tremendous
diversity in Asia makes generalisation about HIV/AIDS
meaningless because it prevents the appreciation of the
specificity of the spread of HIV in the local social context,
and the cultural sensitivity that make strategies effective in
one setting but useless in another. Against the background of
such diversity, this paper tries to highlight the key issues and
strategies related to the sex sector that were brought up at the
International Conference on HIV/AIDS in Asia Pacific held in
Kuala Lumpur from 20-27 October 1999. |

The
Pulse Opinion Poll
|
Has
the word "AIDS", with the help of communicators,
become too associated with stigma and finality? Does the
all-encompassing term HIV convey hope and possibility? With
fewer people developing the clinical manifestations of AIDS
due to the use of ARV drugs, will the word "AIDS"
still be adequate for care efforts? Isn't the existence of two
words an unnecessary complication? Shouldn't we refocus on
preventing the virus transmission?
