Although the countries in the Central Asia region are still at the earliest stage of an HIV/AIDS epidemic, they are experiencing a steep growth of new HIV cases, related epidemics of injected drug use, sexually-transmitted infections (STIs) and tuberculosis. They also have a large youth population and low levels of public awareness about the epidemics. This report contains country profiles which identify key issues and recommend further action, covering epidemiology; strategic and regulatory frameworks; surveillance; preventive, diagnostic and treatment activities; non-governmental and partner activities; and resources available.

Annotation Tuberculosis is still a significant health and economic problem in Central Asia, despite recent progress of the overall economic situation in the region. Over 50,000 new cases were detected in 2003, and over 7,000 people died due to tuberculosis in Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan the four countries analyzed in this study. Stopping Tuberculosis in Central Asia examines the control efforts and financing of tuberculosis programs in the region. It also addresses the impending epidemiological crisis that has been posed by the sudden increase in cases of HIV/AIDS infection combined with a prevalent epidemic of tuberculosis. The authors find that it is highly unlikely that the Central Asian Republics will succeed in achieving the global targets for tuberculosis control in the short-term unless decisive action is taken.

Infectious diseases are the leading cause of death globally, particularly among children and young adults. The spread of new pathogens and the threat of antimicrobial resistance pose particular challenges in combating these diseases. Major Infectious Diseases identifies feasible, cost-effective packages of interventions and strategies across delivery platforms to prevent and treat HIV/AIDS, other sexually transmitted infections, tuberculosis, malaria, adult febrile illness, viral hepatitis, and neglected tropical diseases. The volume emphasizes the need to effectively address emerging antimicrobial resistance, strengthen health systems, and increase access to care. The attainable goals are to reduce incidence, develop innovative approaches, and optimize existing tools in resource-constrained settings.
