| Publisher Description: The book presents the status and trends of STI HIV and AIDS in the Western Pacific Region based on the cumulative number of cases of HIV diagnoses in all countries of the Region. Analysis of he trend of the relative proportion in HIV risk exposure suggests that there have been three waves - first sexual contact among men; second widespread sharing of equipment among injecting drug users; and finally the steady increase in the proportion of reported cases with heterosexual contact. |
