Abstract:
Objective To analyze correlation between female HIV prevalence and policy resources invested for the prevention of mother-tochild transmission(PMTCT).Methods Local policy documents concerning PMCTC published in different periods of time were collected from 4 HIV endemic counties in China,and their main components were analyzed in terms of their correlation with the recent infection rate in local women in general and single and married women of child bearing age in particular.Results The policy resources invested for PMTCT by the county governments had a logarithmic correlation with the female HIV infection rates.Conclusion With the rise of female HIV infection rates,policy resources invested for PMTCT has been increased,but after a rapid increase,recent female HIV infection has exerted little influence on the investment of policy resources.
