COMMENTARY

24th February 2005 		Hi Dex, according to the UNAIDS, there were about 40 million people with HIV at the end of 2004, and a little over 3 million people died of AIDS during the year (see: http://www.unaids.org/wad2004/EPI_1204_pdf_en/Chapter11_maps_en.pdf). WHO reports say that there are about 700,000 people with AIDS in developing countries (see: http://www.who.int/3by5/mediacentre/news40/en/). The CDC is the USA gives the number of people in the USA with HIV and with AIDS (see: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/stats.htm) but few countries maintain current figures of people who have progressed from HIV to AIDS and most UNAIDS and WHO figures are projected estimates.
