90% to be included in intervention as 44,000 infections reported this year

BEIJING - An intervention program will be expanded to include at least 90 percent of groups considered at high risk of contracting HIV/AIDS by 2015, in a move to reverse the spread of the virus, a leading health official said.

Currently, less than 40 percent of such groups, including men having sex with men (MSM) and sex workers, have ever been reached for HIV/AIDS intervention, Hao Yang, deputy director of the disease prevention and control bureau of the Ministry of Health, told China Daily.
