UNAIDS warns PNG against complacency | Pacific Beat

UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibe says PNG is more likely moving towards the HIV / AIDS infection trend of many African countries. Latest figures released by the PNG National Aids Council show the infection rate has gone down to 1 per cent from 1.2 per cent.

And Mr Sidibe says UNAIDS is impressed with the support given by the PNG government, donor partners and non-governmental agencies in addressing the spread of the virus. But he says there's no room for complacency in containing the epidemic.
