HIV General Situation

The AIDS epidemic is stable and concentrated in certain vulnerable population subgroups.The national HIV infection prevalence rate in this age group has been stable at approximately 0.6% since 2004, being 0.4% in females and 0.8% in males. These estimates are obtained through the Parturient Women Sentinel Study, which also estimates syphilis prevalence (1.6%), as well as evaluating the quality of healthcare during the antenatal period and childbirth throughout the country's entire public health network. It is important to note that the population of parturient women has been monitored since the 1990s because its HIV prevalence rate is similar to that of the general female population.

Brazil conducted a new parturient sentinel study in 2011, the data of which will be published in 2012. In the case of young women aged 15-24, the HIV prevalence rate estimated in 2006 was similar to the rate of approximately 0.26 found in 2004 (Szwarcwald CL, 2008).
