AIDS prevention works - we can stop the spread of HIV - lessons from Uganda - Video

Comment by Dr Patrick Dixon, Founder of ACET, about how corporations can help stop AIDS. HIV prevention can produce huge falls in infection rates in teenagers

Global Situation

85 million HIV infections total by 2007
HIV / AIDS kills more than any other infectious disease
45 million men, women and children alive with HIV
40 million AIDS deaths
5 million new HIV infections a year
2% of global population 15-45 years carries HIV
More than 90% with HIV are in the poorest nations
20 million children under 15 lost mothers to AIDS
60% new infections are women
Half of all infections are in people under 25 years old

S E Asia

5-11 million have HIV in India alone. Epidemic in far earlier stage than Africa

China

Hard to be certain of situation
Rapid spread among drug users and now into general population

India

More cases of HIV than any other country
African-style spread at huge speed among 1.2bn population (50 times Uganda).
Absence of high profile national campaign.
2.5% infected in Bombay with HIV. Active STDs carried by 48%.
Up to 1000 new infections a day in Bombay
Numbers with HIV in India by 2015 could exceed that in all Africa today

US

1 million HIV infections to date increasing by 20,000 a year (down from 100,000 a year). To compare, the ten year Vietnam war claimed 50,000 US lives.

Africa

AIDS biggest single cause of death
25 million people have HIV
5% of all people aged 15-49
More women infected than men

Botswana

40% pregnant women have HIV in some urban areas

Kenya

Business survey found AIDS costs almost 4% of annual profits

South Africa

Treatment of STDs is highly effective. In a recent Tanzania study, six communities with improved STD control had 40% fewer new HIV infections than nearby areas. Circumcision also protects against HIV transmission
Condoms: Vietnam 40 million to 117 per year from 1991 to 1995
Thailand 15 million condoms to 88 million from 1990 to 1992
Thai men have reduced numbers of partners and practice more celibacy and faithfulness - dramatic reduction in HIV rates among new military recruits. Nationwide the annual rate is 25% of the 1990 level.
Uganda HIV rates have fallen dramatically in young women.
