South Asia's HIV epidemic is highly
heterogeneous. As a result, informed, prioritized, and
effective responses necessitate an understanding of the
epidemic diversity between and within countries. Further
spread of HIV in South Asia is preventable. The future size
of South Asia's epidemic will depend on an effective
two-pronged approach: firstly, on the scope and
effectiveness of HIV prevention programs for sex workers and
their clients, injecting drug users and their sexual
partners, and men having sex with men and their other sexual
partners; and secondly, on the effectiveness of efforts to
address the underlying socio-economic determinants of the
epidemic, and to reduce stigma and discrimination towards
people engaging in high risk behaviors, often marginalized
in society, as well as people living with HIV and AIDS. |
