2005 Consensus Report on HIV Estimate in the Philippines. Department of Health Philippines, WHO and UNAIDS (2005)
|
Every two to three years, the Department of Health (DOH) initiates a consensus-building process during which the number of prevalent HIV infections in the Philippines is estimated. Generating reasonable estimates of the number of HIV infections in the country is important, not only for monitoring trends in the prevalence of infection, but also for more rational planning of effective responses against the problem. The data will also facilitate a more systematic assessment of the effectiveness of current prevention and control as well as care and support initiatives of the public and private sectors.
