Abstract
Throughout the world, 40 million people are infected with HIV, 20 million have died from AIDS, and 750 000 babies are born with HIV infection every year. These are the much vaunted hard facts to emerge at the start of the XIV International AIDS conference in Barcelona, Spain, from July 7 to 12. The epidemic is “out of control”, and is still in its “early stages”, according to Peter Piot, executive director of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). In the next 20 years, he estimates, 70 million people will die as a result of the disease.
