The methodology was mainly documentary (epidemic behavior) and quantitative (simple linear regression model for economic and health variables). The major indicators that influence the decrease in the prevalence of HIV are: GDP per capita, health expenditure per capita and the Gini index Structural determinants, as well as inequities, may or not influence the decrease in prevalence of HIV.
