Human Immune Deficiency Virus (HIV)/Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) has posed different set of challenges towards the country's growth and has also changed the strategic approach of Public Health for containing the further growth of the disease. HIV/AIDS is considered as more of a social problem than a medical problem alone. National AIDS Control Program (NACP) though its three phases have tried to design & implement evidence based strategies including Targeted Interventions (TI) based on the lessons learnt in the past. It has been a long journey for more than a decade which has brought innovations & effectiveness into the program and is showing some preliminary results in positive direction in limiting the HIV infection among HRGs. In the present communication few of the salient features of the entire approach and possible impacts in the future have been discussed.
人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)/获得性免疫缺陷综合征(AIDS)给该国的发展带来了一系列不同的挑战,同时也改变了公共卫生遏制该疾病进一步蔓延的战略方针。HIV/AIDS更多地被视为一个社会问题,而非单纯的医学问题。国家艾滋病控制项目(NACP)历经三个阶段,试图根据过去吸取的经验教训,设计并实施基于证据的策略,包括针对性干预(TI)。十多年来走过了漫长的道路,为该项目带来了创新和成效,并且在限制高危人群中的HIV感染方面正朝着积极方向展现出一些初步成果。在本交流中,讨论了整个方法的一些显著特征以及未来可能产生的影响。
