HIV/Aids in the Middle East And North Africa: The Costs of InactionCarol Lynn Jenkins, David A. Robalino, World Bank, World Health Organization. Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean, Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS. World Bank Publications, 2003 - 173 من الصفحات "This book reviews the current knowledge available on the prevalence of HIV/AIDS in the MENA/EM region with the goal of stimulating discussion among policy- and decisionmakers. In other regions, early investments in good surveillance and effective prevention programs have proved to be relative bargains, compared with the costs of a full-blown epidemic. As the authors argue, the time to act is now, while prevalence levels are still low. To that end, they make specific recommendations and offer best practices and case studies from around the world." "This volume is the product of the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), the World Health Organization (Eastern Mediterranean Regional Office), and the World Bank. It will be of particular interest to those in the fields of public health, social policy, and economic development, as well as to students and scholars of the region." --Résumé de l'éditeur. |
