Percentages and denominators !!Better to remember, what you are dealing with HIV Epidemic in Asia started around 1990s Overall adult HIV prevalence in Asia is around 0.3%
compared to 4.9% in Sub Saharan Africa (SSA) National adult HIV prevalence in most of the Asian
countries are actually low (<1%) (Ban, Mal, SL, <0.1%; Bh, TL, 0.1%; Ino, 0.2%; In, 0.3%, Np, 0.4%;
Myr, 0.6%; Th 1.4%) However, large population sizes (60% of world popln)
means even with low prevalence, large number of people are infected
Thus, around 4.9 million people are living with HIV in Asia compared to 22.5 million in SSA

What is this burden as a proportion of the global HIV burden?
- Second highest HIV burden in the world after SSA - Accounting for 15% of people living with HIV globally

Even within the countries, the burden is concentrated National epidemics are mainly concentrated
E.g. in India, more than half (56%) is in high prevalence states
In China, five provinces account for 53%
10
“Overall”, the HIV epidemic in Asia is, stable An estimated 4.9 million people were living with HIV
in 2009 Overall, it is stable around this figure

The epidemic is stable or declining in most of the countries Most national HIV epidemics appear to have stabilized No country in the region has a generalized epidemic Thailand: only country in this region which has prevalence
close to 1% (stabilized) Cambodia: adult prevalence decreased from 1.2% (yr
2001) to 0.5% (yr 2009) India: sustained decline from 0.41% (yr 2000) to 0.31% (yr
2009)
13
But, there are historically low prevalence countries that are now showing an increase HIV prevalence is increasing in low-prevalence
countries: Bangladesh Pakistan (mainly IDU driven) Indonesia Philippines
14
HIV prevalence varies within countries E.g. in India, (national adult HIV prevalence 0.31%) Within the country, Manipur 1.40%, followed by Andhra
Pradesh (0.90%), Mizoram (0.81%), Nagaland (0.78%), Karnataka (0.63%) and Maharashtra (0.55%).
Besides, Goa, Chandigarh, Gujarat, Punjab and Tamil Nadu have > (0.31%),
Delhi, Orissa, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh & Puducherry have shown estimated adult HIV prevalence of 0.28-0.30%.
All other states/UTs have lower levels of HIV.

HIV incidence in Asia (“overall trend”)
An estimated 360,000 people were newly infected in 2009 (450,000 in 2001), a 20% reduction over eight years
Overall incidence shows a declining trend
Source: WHO, UNAIDS, Global Report 2010, (Note: China, between 0.24 to 0.47 million)
18
Incidence rates vary by countries

19
HIV Incidence in Asia (contd.)
Between 2001 and 2009, incidence fell by more than 25% in: India (60%), Nepal and Thailand
However, the epidemic remained stable during this time in: Malaysia and Sri Lanka
During this period, incidence increased by 25% in: Bangladesh and Philippines (otherwise low % level)
20
HIV incidence vary within countriesE.g. in India: Of the estimated 120,000 new infections in 2009, six high prevalence states account for only 39% of
the cases, while otherwise low prevalence states of Orissa,
Bihar, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat account for 41% of new infections

22
HIV burden in Women (contd.)
An estimated 1.3 million women (aged >15 yrs) are living with HIV in SEA
Except Bhutan and Timor-Leste, F:M ratio < 1 Proportion of women with HIV has increased over
period of time Reasons for higher vulnerability of women: barrier
(access) to health care; stigma, gender inequality,
23
HIV burden in Children (S&SEA)
Prevalence: Estimated no of children (<15 yrs) living with HIV increased from
140,000 (yr 2005) to 160,000 ( yr 2009) Incidence:
Estimated number of children (<15 yrs) getting newly infected with HIV 22,000 (yr 2009) from 26,000 (yr 1999)
15% decline Reason: increasing access to PMTCT of HIV drop in
number of children getting infected AIDS related deaths among children declined from 18,000
(yr 2004) to 15,000 (yr 2009)
24
AIDS related mortality
Number of deaths have largely stabilized
Source: WHO, UNAIDS, Global Report 2010, (Note: China, between 0.24 to 0.47 million)
25
AIDS related mortality
Number of deaths have stabilized Estimated AIDS related deaths 300,000 (yr 2009)
compared to 250,000 in 2001 Variations exist by countries Almost 50% of these deaths occurred in India
(estimated 172,000) The trend of annual AIDS deaths in India is
showing a steady decline since the roll out of free ART programme in 2004.
26
Significance of prevalence and incidence Both the measures are important Prevalence reflects the load/burden
at a point in time Affected by both new infections and
mortality Needed to determine care and
treatment needs Incidence reflects the rate of
spread or progress of HIV epidemic Better measure to understand the
epidemiology and to assess the impact of preventive interventions
Although incidence is a preferred measure, it is difficult to obtain.
What are the methods to get HIV prevalence?
What are the available data sources?
What are the methods to get HIV incidence?
What special softwares are used? Which is better? Which is feasible?
27
Message, till now…
1. HIV prevalence in Asia: overall declining
2. HIV incidence in Asia: overall declining
3. Magnitude differs greatly between countries
4. Some showing decline (India, Thailand, Nepal)
5. Some showing increase (Bangladesh, Philippines, Indonesia, Pakistan)
6. Burden is concentrated in specific geographical areas within the countries

Message till now…
HIV epidemic is concentrated within specific population groups (MARPs), FSW, MSM+TG, ISU
Level of HIV prevalence is very high among MARP Declining trend in some countries, in some popln grp,
increasing in other Large variations exists within countries This ‘strategic’ information comes from sentinel
surveillance How to interpret information from sentinel surveillance data
is crucial to make meaningful interpretation What happens when consolidating data from ‘all sites’

Why Should We Understand Response? Strategically Planned and Effectively Implemented
Response can halt and reverse the HIV epidemic Timing of Response has major impact on the
course and magnitude of HIV epidemic Consolidation of Lessons Learnt will help improve
the Future Response Understanding of past and current response sets a
baseline for future action

What is the crucial (strategic) information we need to know? What are the drivers of the epidemic?
Which are the (particular) MARPs What is their size? What is their profile? (dual risk?)
What are the vulnerabilities? STIs (levels, trends, geo distribution, by popl grps) Risk behavior (levels, changes by intervn, by pop grps) Other vulnerabilities (e.g. migration) Specific geographic vulnerabilities

Comprehensive Correct Knowledge* about Transmission & Prevention of HIV/AIDS, India
* Correctly identify two major ways of preventing sexual transmission of HIV (Consistent condom use and having one faithful uninfected sex partner), reject two most common local misconceptions about HIV transmission (transmission of HIV/AIDS through mosquito bites and sharing of meals with HIV/AIDS patients), and know that a healthy-looking person can transmit HIV.GP: General Population (15-49 yrs), Youth: 15-24 yrs
