The global AIDS pandemic. Toward a new vision of health.
The AIDS pandemic has not been brought under control in any community or nation as its impact continues to worsen. The program-based strategy developed in the mid-1980s was important in placing AIDS on national and global agendas. From the laboratory and healthcare facilities will come many answers to the AIDS pandemic, some opening new prospects for effective prevention and care. The global fight against AIDS has now reached a critical stage in which complacency and loss of direction threaten the opportunity to effectively curb the course of the pandemic, mitigate its impact, and stimulate the emergence of a modern concept of health and society.
