It says HIV-related deaths appear to have reached their highest point in 2004. Since the (36) peak, deaths have fallen by around ten percent as more people have received (37) treatment.
    Experts credit the good news in the report at least in part to prevention programs, not just the natural progress of the (38) epidemic. Yet the report points out that while the AIDS epidemic is changing, prevention programs are not. Karen Stanecki at UNAIDS says few programs , for example, are designed for people in (39) secure relationships. Or people over twenty-five. Or the newly single. AIDS is the (40) leading cause of death in women aged fifteen to forty-four. Those are the main years for having children.
    The WHO is now advising (41) infected women to begin anti-ret-roviral (反逆转录病毒的) drugs at fourteen weeks of (42) pregnan-cy, instead of twenty-eight. Women are also advised to continue treatment through the (43) recommended end of breastfeeding, when the baby is one year old. This reduces the risk of infecting the child.
    Treatments and population growth mean more people than ever are living with HIV. The latest estimates say almost thirty-three and a half million have the virus. There were two million AIDS-related deaths last year, and two million seven hundred thousand new infections.
    About two-thirds of the people with HTV are in sub-Saharan Africa. On Tuesday, President Jacob Zuma announced an expansion of testing and treatment. By next April, he says, (45) all HIV-infected children less than one year old will receive treatment.
    AIDS research continues. On Monday the United States said it will hold the 2012 International AIDS Conference. (46) The event has not taken place here since 1990 because of restrictions against visitors with HIV.
