Poll ranks AIDS as world's top health issue
AIDS is the world's most important health-care issue according to people all over the world who were polled for their perceptions of the AIDS epidemic in a new survey commissioned by UNAIDS.
Optimism about the state of the global AIDS epidemic and progress in responding to it varied widely, often along geographical lines. In sub-Saharan Africa, where most HIV infections occur, 31 percent of respondents chose the term "getting worse" to describe the issue, while another 30 percent chose "tragic". In South and Southeast Asia participants were more likely to see the situation as "hopeful" or "manageable".
