However, HIV prevalence among certain high risk groups, such as injecting drug users, is still high and overall prevalence in Thailand remains the highest in the region.2 Thailand was one of the first countries in Asia to offer both first- and second-line antiretroviral treatment regimens. Lower drug prices have contributed to a rapid increase in the number of HIV-positive people receiving antiretroviral treatment in Thailand from about 2,500 in November 2002 to 236,808 at the end of 2010.3 4 back to top Myanmar (Burma) Myanmar (Burma) HIV & AIDS Statistics Estimated total population, 2010 53,414,374 Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 240,000 Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 81,000 Estimated adult HIV prevalence, end 2009 0.6% Estimated number of AIDS-related deaths in 2009 18,000 Myanmar is one of the least densely populated countries in Asia, with more than three-quarters of the population living in small villages. HIV is primarily concentrated among high-risk groups, including sex workers and their clients, MSM and injecting drug users.5 Antiretroviral treatment coverage in Myanmar is low, with only an estimated 24% of those in need of treatment receiving it in 2010.6 back to top Cambodia Cambodia HIV & AIDS Statistics Estimated total population, 2010 14,453,680 Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 63,000 Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 35,000 Estimated adult HIV prevalence, end 2009 0.5% Estimated number of AIDS-related deaths in 2009 3,100 Cambodia's HIV epidemic is concentrated among sex workers, MSM and injecting drug users. HIV prevalence is still high among these groups, despite a decline in national prevalence from 1.2% in 20037 to 0.5% in 2009. Antiretroviral treatment coverage is the highest in the region – with an estimated 92% of those in need of treatment in Cambodia receiving it in 2010.8 9 back to top Vietnam Vietnam HIV & AIDS Statistics Estimated total population, 2010 89,571,130 Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 280,000 Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 81,000 Estimated adult HIV prevalence, end 2009 0.4% Estimated number of AIDS-related deaths in 2009 14,000 It has been suggested that Vietnam's HIV epidemic has shown signs of stabilising. HIV prevalence among the most affected groups has declined; in 2009 it was estimated that 18% of injecting drug users were living with HIV, compared to 29% in 2004.10 Although antiretroviral therapy coverage has increased significantly in recent years, still only 52% of those in need of treatment were receiving it by the end of 2010.11 back to top Lao People's Democratic Republic Lao People's Democratic Republic HIV & AIDS Statistics Estimated total population, 2010 6,368,162 Estimated number of people living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 8,500 Estimated number of women living with HIV/AIDS, end 2009 3,500 Estimated adult HIV prevalence, end 2009 0.2% Estimated number of AIDS-related deaths in 2009 <200 One of the reasons for the fairly low prevalence in Lao PDR, compared to other countries in the region, is the high rates of consistent condom use - around 80% of female and male sex workers reported condom use with their most recent client.12 However, as Lao PDR is surrounded by countries with more severe epidemics it is constantly vulnerable to a worsening HIV situation. An estimated 51% of people in need of antiretroviral therapy received it in 2010.13 email print tweet more Where Next?

More than 2,400 young people are newly infected with HIV every day, accounting for 40% of new adult infections. Involving youth in the HIV response is key to lowering new HIV infections among the next generation and the role of technology in doing this is now clearer than ever. A sneak preview of results from an AVERT survey, due to be released on International Youth Day 2013 - 12 August, show that most young people prefer to get their sexual health and HIV/AIDS information online or via mobile, as it's quicker, confidential and cheap. But not all youth are the same, we've found regional variations in the type of technology young people prefer - with 67% of respondents from Africa using mobile phones for health information, compared to just 31% in Europe.
