Impact on HIV: Expanding the Response
Volume 1, Number 2, September 1999

Family Health International's (FHI) latest issue of Impact on HIV, a
semiannual magazine about HIV/AIDS prevention and care, is now on-line.

This issue examines a number of ways to expand the reach and scope of
HIV/AIDS prevention and care efforts. It includes articles about outreach
services for injecting drug users and their partners in Ukraine, options for
preventing trafficking of women and children in Asia, and promising research
findings from Uganda on an affordable drug to prevent mother-to child HIV
transmission. Other topics addressed include the impact of STI treatment on
HIV transmission, strengthening HIV testing and other laboratory diagnostic
services, voluntary HIV counseling and testing, and FHI's surveys on HIV
risk behavior to help monitor and evaluate prevention efforts in 20
countries.
