LONDON — The world is
losing the race against the AIDS
virus, which last year infected a
record 5 million people and killed
an unprecedented 3 million, the
United Nations reported Tuesday.
The virus has now pushed
deep into Eastern Europe and
Asia, and tackling it will be
more expensive than previ
ously believed, according to
the most accurate picture to
date of the global status of
HIV infections.
The number of people living
with HIV has risen in every re
gion. UNAIDS chief Dr. Peter
Piot said the deaths and infections
were a testament to the world’s
failure to get prevention and treat
ment to those who need it.
Nine out of 10 people who
urgently need treatment are not
getting it, and prevention is only
reaching one in five at risk
report said.
The AIDS epidemic is
entering its globalizationfl
Piot said at the launch

which is compiled evei)

“AIDS is truly a di
our globalized world,
