I read some of the websites posted yesterday for the causes of AIDS decline. Here's what I got:

Question

. better treatment
. 'appearance of drug-resistant infection and the inability of some patients to take the medicines'
. HIV prevention

will someone please help me find more. or give me more helpful sites?
thanks

Answer 1

. campaigns promoting abstinence and faithfulness to sex partners

Answer 2

I read in those same sites
medicines more widely available.
many of those previously sick are now dead
publicity and acceptance of the "safe-sex" messages
Condoms being widely available, and being more socially acceptable.
Earlier detection so infected folks don't keep spreading.

Answer 3

Oh yes, in South AFrica, the debunking and understanding of the silliness the previous government did on "treatment" of AIDS cases, and a widespread understanding that information was false. The government has changed, and now legitimate treatment is being expanded to those pregnant, and to babies infected.
