Myanmar's HIV infection rate down slightly in 2014
Myanmar's HIV transmission rate has decreased to 0.4 percent in 2014 from 0.95 percent in 2013, the country's Ministry of Health said on Saturday.
The country plans to extend drug treatment to more than 120,000 patients carrying HIV in 2016.
According to the 2013 survey, some 7,000 people are diagnosed with HIV each year.
Besides, the government is also expanding free medical services to both tuberculosis and multi-drug-resistant TB patients, the ministry said, adding that it is also planning to reduce the outbreak and death toll from malaria in 2015 and is already accelerating its healthcare services to control drug-resistant malaria, which mostly breaks out in border regions.
According to the sources, the ministry has earmarked a spending of 650 billion Kyats (650 million U.S. dollars) for overall public health development in the period of 2014-15.
Myanmar is cooperating with partner organizations in fight against HIV, TB and malaria, including internal and international non-governmental organizations, U.N. agencies and other donor organizations.
