Stop HIV: Beyond ABC

With over 40 million people infected with HIV worldwide and over 11,000 new infections every day, universal access to comprehensive HIV prevention services is essential. In 2006, roughly 4.3 million people became newly infected with HIV, including roughly 530,000 children under the age of 15, most of whom were infected through mother-to-child transmission of the virus. HIV prevention does not have to be complicated in order to have a real impact on the spread of HIV/AIDS. But it does have to address the various needs of all populations at risk—from injection drug users to adult married women.
