Description
Summary:Highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) remains largely unavailable in the developing world. But even with increased availability, HAART is not a silver bullet either for treating or for preventing HIV. Arguably, it is more important than ever to develop and rigorously test innovative interventions to prevent the transmission of HIV. The collection of publications in this issue features the prevention research conducted by the International Program of the Center for AIDS Prevention Studies, University of California at San Francisco. These nine studies offer practical strategies for monitoring the epidemic in all its stages, and suggest affordable prevention approaches in a wide range of settings in the developing world.
