A 2002 study published by UNAIDS in 2007 showed that infection levels among MSM in Guatemala are 10 times higher than in the adult general population.

While in transit, migrants may participate in high-risk sexual behavior, increasing their chances of becoming infected with HIV and other sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The Garifuna population, which shares cultural and ethnic characteristics with the Caribbean countries, is more at risk than the general population. The effects of HIV/AIDS are exacerbated by high poverty levels and limited access to health care, particularly among <a href="/wiki/Rural" class="mw-redirect" title="Rural">rural</a> populations.<sup id="cite_ref-usaid_1-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The rate of HIV co-infection with <a href="/wiki/Tuberculosis" title="Tuberculosis">tuberculosis</a> (TB) is growing.

However, sentinel surveillance was not established until 1998. Over the past several years, the <a href="/wiki/Guatemalan_government" class="mw-redirect" title="Guatemalan government">Guatemalan government</a> has taken concrete steps to address the HIV/AIDS <a href="/wiki/Epidemic" title="Epidemic">epidemic</a>. A national strategic plan was produced from 1999 to 2003. At the end of 2005, Guatemala adopted a new national HIV/AIDS policy, along with a new strategic plan for 2006 to 2010. The plan charges the NAP with coordinating national responses, including those from civil society. UNAIDS works with the NAP, and USAID provides technical assistance to implement the national strategic plan and establish key universal access targets. Decentralization of AIDS care and prevention services throughout the country is an important priority.<sup id="cite_ref-usaid_1-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In recent years, the NAP has improved communication with civil society and other institutions to coordinate national efforts. This has resulted in the establishment of NAP-led technical committees with multisectoral participation to address such issues as standardizing diagnosis, treatment, and care. Moreover, the Country Coordination Mechanism serves as an inter-institutional coordinating body, aimed at better implementing Global Fund projects. Guatemala is also implementing the Regional HIV/STI Plan for the Health Sector 2006–2015 of the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO). The Plan is designed to assist health services and systems in the Americas to more effectively respond to the HIV epidemic and prevent STIs.<sup id="cite_ref-usaid_1-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p><a href="/wiki/Antiretroviral_treatment" class="mw-redirect" title="Antiretroviral treatment">Antiretroviral treatment</a> (ART) coverage has expanded over the years, and currently, 76 percent of identified HIV-infected men and women who need treatment receive ART, according to the NAP.

However, because the slow expansion and decentralization of services, people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) must travel long distances to obtain treatment, imposing cost burdens on them. There are major challenges in extending both prevention and care coverage outside the capital and other main cities. Furthermore, discrimination against PLWHA and vulnerable groups such as commercial sex workers and MSM remains a significant barrier to a more effective AIDS response in Guatemala. USAID has supported a national campaign focusing on the diversity of PLWHA to help break down barriers of stigma and discrimination (S&D) and promote respect for <a href="/wiki/Human_rights" title="Human rights">human rights</a> related to HIV/AIDS.<sup id="cite_ref-usaid_1-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Guatemala receives significant support from the Global Fund to expand prevention, care, and treatment activities among vulnerable groups and in priority geographic areas of the country. The objectives of the Global Fund are to expand prevention activities and ART services from the capital city to regions with the highest HIV incidence; to improve coordination among civil society organizations working in HIV/AIDS, and to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV by expanding voluntary screening and counseling for pregnant women. Bilateral donors, including USAID and <a href="/wiki/Europe" title="Europe">European</a> countries, also provide support for prevention, treatment, care, and health system improvement initiatives.<sup id="cite_ref-usaid_1-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="See_also">See also</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=HIV/AIDS_in_Guatemala&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: See also"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/HIV/AIDS_in_North_America" title="HIV/AIDS in North America">HIV/AIDS in North America</a></li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=HIV/AIDS_in_Guatemala&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-usaid-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-3"><sup><i><b>d</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-4"><sup><i><b>e</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-5"><sup><i><b>f</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-6"><sup><i><b>g</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-7"><sup><i><b>h</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-8"><sup><i><b>i</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-9"><sup><i><b>j</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-usaid_1-10"><sup><i><b>k</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.usaid.gov/our_work/global_health/aids/Countries/lac/guatemala_profile.pdf">"Health Profile: Guatemala"</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080913115448/http://www.usaid.gov/our_work/global_health/aids/Countries/lac/guatemala_profile.pdf">Archived</a> 2008-09-13 at the <a href="/wiki/Wayback_Machine" title="Wayback Machine">Wayback Machine</a>. <a href="/wiki/United_States_Agency_for_International_Development" title="United States Agency for International Development">United States Agency for International Development</a> (June 2008).
