1. (10 points)
[A] Most governments are responding pragmatically. After years in which
AIDS was denounced as a social evil, Vietnam's communist rulers have begun to
attend AIDS-awareness functions and promote AIDS-prevention schemes. In
neighbouring Laos, soldiers are taught about AIDS as part of their training.
Indonesia is running needle exchanges and handing out methadone to heroin users,
although only at a handful of clinics.
Until recently, South-East Asia was considered a beacon of hope in the
fight against AIDS. Thailand and Cambodia, where the epidemic took hold in the
1990s, have managed to reduce the incidence of the disease through vigorous and
well funded public-health campaigns. In Cambodia, the proportion of adults
infected by HIV, the virus that causes AIDS, fell from 3% in 1997 to a still
high 1.9% in 2003. In Thailand, the number of new cases has fallen each year for
the past decade.
[C] "BOOM!" That, in a word, is how one epidemiologist describes the spread
of AIDS in Vietnam. Infection rates may be higher in Africa, but AIDS is growing
faster in South-East Asia than in any other part of the world. What is more, in
populous countries like Vietnam and Indonesia, even small increases in the
proportion infected means millions of new cases.
[D] AIDS is spreading so quickly because those most in danger are still
taking risks. A recent survey of injecting drug users in three Indonesian cities
found that 88% had used unsterilised needles in the previous week. No wonder,
then, that half of all drug users in Jakarta and Bali have HIV. By the same
token, repeated surveys find that relatively few prostitutes use condoms in
Indonesia. Infection rates among them have risen as high as 17% in some parts of
the country. In Ho Chi Minh City, in Vietnam, over a third of prostitutes inject
drugs, and half of those are HIV positive.
[E] But when Malaysian authorities announced that they would start similar
programmes earlier this year, religious leaders reacted with horror. The
government of the state of Perak said it would distribute condoms only to
married men. In 2003, the Philippines' Catholic bishops succeeded in blocking a
proposal to spend government money on condom distribution. The military regime
in Myanmar has not yet allowed any prevention campaigns on radio or television.
Even Thailand, which mounted a much-imitated "100% condom" campaign in the
1990s, is uncomfortable with any policies that imply forbearance in the face of
drug use.
[F] People in the region remain worryingly ignorant about AIDS. Last year,
the World Health Organization reported that prevention programmers had reached
only 19% of prostitutes in Asia and the Pacific, 5% of drug users and 1% of gay
men. People in risky situations use condoms only 8% of the time, it reckoned.
Only 1% of Indonesian women have ever been tested for HIV.
[G] Even as Thailand and Cambodia get to grips with AIDS, however, the
disease has been taking hold in other countries in the region. Myanmar and Papua
New Guinea, with estimated infection rates of 1.2% and 1.7% respectively, face
what the United Nations AIDS programmer call generalized epidemics. Several
others, including Indonesia and Vietnam, are witnessing skyrocketing infection
rates among drug users, from whom the disease might soon start spreading to the
wider population. In East Asia as a whole, the number of people living with HIV
rose by 24% in 2004 alone, according to a UNAIDS report, to be released on July
1st at a regional AIDS conference in Kobe, Japan.
