Before the earthquake , UNAIDS estimated that 68,000 people were living with HIV in the three departments that were later impacted by the tremor - 57 per cent of the national total of 120,000 . UNDP , as Global Fund principal recipient , helped mainstream HIV and health-related initiatives into different phases of early recovery ( including cash-for-work and gender-based violence programmes ) to ensure that people living with HIV and other vulnerable groups , including sex workers , men who have sex with men ( MSM ) and youth were able to access life-saving HIV services .
