Abstract
HIV is cause for major concern all over the globe. By the end of 2009, there were 33.3 million reported cases of people living with HIV (PLWH) worldwide, with 2.6 million new infections and 1.8 million HIV-related deaths (Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS [UNAIDS], 2010). Specifically in Latin America, the incidence of HIV has increased from 1.1 million adults and children living with HIV in 2001 to 1.4 million adults and children living with HIV in 2009 (UNAIDS, 2010). Additionally, the rate of new infections has grown, as there were 150,000 reported cases of new infections in 2001 and this number increased to 170,000 reported cases of new infections in 2008.
