Annual Evidence Update on HIV/AIDs: 24 November - 5 December 2008

An update of the evidence on this topic from the NLH Infections Specialist Library.

The Infections Specialist Library will launch its first Annual Evidence Update on 24th November. This has been timed to coincide with World HIV/AIDS Day on the 1st of December. The National Library for Public Health (http://www.library.nhs.uk/publichealth) will be presenting a complementary evidence update on Behaviour change in high-risk populations.

There is a vast amount of literature on HIV/AIDS, so this Annual Evidence Update is using the UK National Guidelines for HIV testing 2008 published by the British Association for Sexual Health and HIV, the British HIV Association and the British Infection Society as the starting document. Experts in the field will be providing summaries on some of these subtopics, and links to other useful websites will also be provided. We welcome feedback about the resources included in this update - please contact us if you would like to comment.
