Talk:HIV/AIDS in Brazil

message: Can someone check this quote from the article
 Similarly, Slavi Pachovski, a member of the Institute for Trade Standards and Sustainable Development, argues:[28]
If this trend proceeds, it we be a global pandemic of AIDS that will grow uncontrollable because the Brazilian move will destroy the whole legal order that is the basis for developing new drugs and continuing research.

thread_title: Passed GA

message: Hello, I was also coming here to do a GA evaluation, but it looks like I was too slow.  I think this is an informative article with an impressive number of citations.  However, there are a few facts that I think are very important to include:
#One would be a comparison of where Brazil rates worldwide with respect to thinkgs like infection rate and spending on prevention and treatment.
#Is most transmission of HIV in Brazil between heterosexuals?  
#Also, Prostitution is mentioned but I don't see any explanation of how important it is to AIDS in Brazil.  
##Is it believed to be a major cause?  The major cause?  
##Is it heterosexual prostitution?  
##What percentage of prostitutes are infected and are they allowed to still work if they are infected?

replies: text: I did a couple quick google and google scholar searches and was unable to find this information. Do you have reason to believe that such statistics exist? savidan(talk) (e@) 20:24, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have no evidence these figures exist, but my intuition tells me they must.  That does not mean they will be easy to find, of course.  It seems to me that the questions above pertaining to prostitution are especially important since prostitution has a sizable section here.  The reader may very well ask "How important is prostitution to the spread of HIV and what is being done about it."  Thanks for trying to find the info. Johntex\talk 20:58, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
