2001_2_Mexico: human rights: "Mexico is classified as a country with overall low HIV prevalence, but with a high HIV prevalence and growth concentrated among sub-sectors of the population. An estimated 15% of men who have sex with men (MSM) and 6% of injecting drug users are HIV-infected. Within the overall adult population (15-49 years), however, the prevalence is 0.29%. The first case of AIDS in Mexico was diagnosed in 1983. By the end of 2000, Mexico had 47,617 officially registered HIV/AIDS cases. More realistic estimates put the total number of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) at 180,000."
