title: The epidemiology of HIV and AIDS. Current trends.
abstract: Nationally and globally the HIV/AIDS pandemic shows little sign of abating as it arrives at the midpoint of its second decade. In many communities, however, successful steps have been taken to limit its progression. The challenge of the years ahead lies in engaging individuals and communities to join in arresting and ultimately reversing the tide of this plague.
