8. Only 30% of eligible pregnant women were receiving antiretroviral therapy for their own health in 2011, compared with 54% for all eligible adults.

9. HIV treatment coverage is 68% for women and 47% for men in low-and middle-income countries, compared with 28%
for children worldwide.
Reaching 15 million people with HIV treatment by 2015: moving forward towards 2015

11. WHO estimates that scaling up collaborative HIV and TB activities meant that an estimated 1.3 million people avoided dying from AIDS related causes from 2005 to 2011.
Fewer than half of all people living with tuberculosis and HIV received antiretroviral therapy in 2011.

12. ~ 97% are in low- and middle-income countries
Over 7000 new HIV infections a day in 2011
~ 97% are in low- and middle-income countries
~ 900 are in children under 15 years of age
~ 6000 are adults aged > / = 15 y, of whom:
─ almost 47% are among women
─ about 39% are among young people (15-24)

14. 25 countries have seen a 50% or greater drop in new HIV infections since 2001.
- There has been a 42% reduction in new HIV infections in the Caribbean (the second most affected region in the world after sub-Saharan Africa).
Half of all reductions in new HIV infections in the last two years have been among newborn children––showing that elimination of new infections in children is possible.
- In 2011, new infections in children were 43% lower than in 2003, and 24% lower than 2009.
