Provisional agenda item 1.6 : Report by the NGO Representative (en | fr) Global response to the AIDS epidemic is experiencing massive scale up. Efforts to contain the epidemic have never been so drastic. Ironically, there is continuing increase in the number of new infections and AIDS-related deaths across the regions. Being a hidden epidemic, the true magnitude of the epidemic remains under-estimated, as observed in all the regions. Still worrisome is the fact that infected persons who know their status form a small percentage of people estimated to be living with HIV.
