HIV/AIDS Situation in ASEAN Region: Update on Infections and Deaths in 2002

In 2002, the ASEAN region faced a significant HIV/AIDS crisis, with nearly 1 million new infections and approximately 490,000 deaths attributed to AIDS. Among those affected, around 2.1 million young people aged 15 to 24 were living with HIV. This alarming data, released by UNAIDS in collaboration with WHO, underscores the urgent need for enhanced prevention and treatment strategies in the Asia-Pacific area. As the epidemic continues to affect lives, a concerted effort is required to combat the spread of HIV/AIDS.
