2 Figure 1 Maternal/infant antiretroviral prophylaxis in low- and middle-income countries. To reduce mother-to-child transmission (MTCT) to below 5%, at least 90% of HIV-1-infected women should be identified and provided with appropriate prophylaxis. In low- and middle-income countries, 37% of pregnant women received HIV testing and counselling in 2012, 62% of women known to be HIV-infected received antiretroviral prophylaxis (ARV) during pregnancy, and 49% received ARV during breastfeeding. 35% of infants born to HIV-infected women were tested for HIV during the first 2 months of life.
