U.N. agency revises strategy on AIDS to help women more
The Associated Press
GENEVA - The World Health Organization adopted a revised strategy to combat AIDS yesterday that focused more on women, saying that they are increasingly at risk of contracting the deadly disease.
It was the first time the U.N. agency had changed its strategy since 1987.
WHO said AIDS imposed a double burden on women because they were more likely than men to be infected with the virus through heterosexual intercourse and to care for relatives who have the disease.
Michael Merson, director of the agency's AIDS program, said revisions in the strategy were needed because the world was entering a new phase of the epidemic as more and more people infected with the virus
came down with AIDS.
Merson said that although 40 percent of the 10 million to 12 million people currently infected with the AIDS virus were female, women were an increasingly large percentage of AIDS cases and would overtake men by the year 2000.
AIDS still predominantly affects men in North America and Europe, but it is much more evenly spread in the Third World. WHO predicts the devastation that is now affecting Africa, where more than 6 million people have AIDS and whole villages are being wiped out, will spread to Asia by the mid-1990s.
WHO predicts that by the year 2000, up to 40 million people will have contracted the human immunodeficiency virus, HIV, which causes AIDS. It says a universally effective and affordable
vaccine is unlikely to be available before then.
"Poverty makes whole communities vulnerable to AIDS by forcing men to leave their families in search of work, by leaving people hopeless enough to turn to the solace of drugs, and by making prostitution a survival strategy for women and children. AIDS then completes the vicious circle by making the community even poorer," said a member of WHO.
The new strategy approved by the WHO executive board urges blunt advertising about how AIDS is transmitted sexually, with a campaign to remove legal and other barriers to such messages. It also hopes to help repeal laws against adult male homosexuality and teach pre-adolescent children and teen-agers safe sex practices before they are sexually active.
