Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is a public health crisis in Brazil. There was a time when Brazil had more cases of AIDS than any other country outside of Africa, India and the United States.
Prevention and Treatment
Brazil has earned international praise for its policies regarding AIDS. Bargaining with pharmaceutical firms and producing generic versions of HIV/AIDS medications has allowed the Brazilian government to save enough money to offer free medication to anyone that needs treatment. The free treatments, coupled with Brazil's STD prevention programs, have made it a model for developing countries around the world struggling to contain the AIDS epidemic.Brazzil.com: Brazil Solves HIV Puzzle (July 2004)
