He brings issues such as sexuality, class, and religious beliefs into the open for the first time. Compelling interviews with activists, people with AIDS, government leaders, and church leaders-all show how the epidemic has developed. Frasca draws lessons from Latin America and the strong activist involvement that succeeded in increasing government resources to fight the disease. Tragic tales and gripping narratives are intermixed with the first set of comprehensive epidemic statistics from the continent, eagerly awaited by the World Health community. 606 $aAIDS (Disease)$zLatin America 606 $aHIV infections$zLatin America 615 0$aAIDS (Disease) 615 0$aHIV infections 676 $a362.196/9792/0098 700 $aFrasca$b Tim$01527463 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784131103321 996 $aAIDS in Latin America$93770321 997 $aUNINA
