A new report released by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS
(UNAIDS), in advance of the
XIVth International
AIDS Conference in Barcelona, warns that the AIDS epidemic is still
in an early phase. HIV prevalence is climbing higher than previously believed
possible in the worst-affected countries and is continuing to spread rapidly
into new populations in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and Eastern Europe.
