Fact Sheet: The Global HIV/AIDS Epidemic
The HIV/AIDS epidemic has already claimed over 25 million lives and more than 39 million people are currently estimated to be living with HIV/AIDS worldwide. HIV/AIDS cases have been reported in all regions of the world. This fact sheet looks at the global response to the epidemic and its economic impact, as well as provides the latest data on the impact of the epidemic by geographic region, on women and on young people.

Fact Sheet: The HIV/AIDS Epidemic in the Caribbean
The HIV/AIDS epidemic has had a profound impact on the Caribbean region, the second-most affected region in the world, after Sub-Saharan Africa, and the most affected in the Americas. AIDS is a leading cause of death among 15-44 year-olds in the region. The epidemic varies significantly across the region's countries and by population, reflecting the Caribbean's cultural, ethnic, and geographic diversity. Women are increasingly affected, comprising half of those living with HIV/AIDS. Young people- especially young women-are at particular risk. This fact sheet provides an overview of the HIV/AIDS epidemic in the Caribbean, including the latest data on the populations affected and information on international support for initiatives to fight the epidemic in the region.

UNAIDS Report on the Global AIDS Epidemic 2006
The latest report from UNAIDS reports a decline in HIV prevalence over the past few years in some countries in the Caribbean region. However, the Caribbean continues to be the second-most affected region globally. These latest findings were published in AIDS Epidemic Update 2006, the annual report by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
