Mondo Health Updated on 2024-01-19

In the past two years, China has made remarkable progress in strengthening surveillance, improving the case reporting system, expanding voluntary counseling and testing, implementing comprehensive prevention, intervention, and care, and strengthening international cooperation. At the same time, a lot of work has been done in the scale of various high-risk groups, special surveys on infection rates, epidemic estimates, etc., enriching the relevant parameters of the AIDS epidemic in China. China is actively implementing the principles and policies of "leadership care and commitment, policy support and participation of the whole people, international recognition and multilateral cooperation", and is making unremitting efforts to establish and improve the AIDS prevention and treatment system.

The active implementation of the "Four Frees and One Care Policy", the active launch of the STD and AIDS monitoring network, and the demonstration area for comprehensive AIDS prevention and control can all reflect the importance that China attaches to the prevention and treatment of AIDS.

The so-called "four frees and one care policy" means free antiretroviral education for AIDS patients in economically disadvantaged groups, free education for orphans of AIDS patients, and free AIDS counseling, screening and antiretroviral drugs for pregnant womenAIDS patients and their families who are living in difficulty will be included in the scope of assistance.

In 2004, the Ministry of Civil Affairs promulgated the Circular on Strengthening Relief for AIDS Patients, Their Families and Orphans of AIDS Patients, which included urban and rural families whose per capita income is lower than the local minimum subsistence allowance due to AIDSIn areas where the rural subsistence allowance system has not yet been established, AIDS patients and their families who are living in difficulty should be listed as the recipients of basic livelihood assistance for extremely poor households, and regular and quantitative living assistance and medical assistance should be provided.

In 2004, the Ministry of Labor and Social Security promulgated the Circular on the Implementation of the HIV/AIDS Antiretroviral Policy, which officially opened the door for AIDS patients to medical insurance.

The family is the most basic element that makes up society, and the correct elimination or mitigation of the socio-economic impact of AIDS on the family can minimize the economic impact of AIDS on society as a whole. For example, in a county in Shanxi Province, 136 families of HIV/AIDS patients with the help of the local grassroots organization "Loess Organization" carried out self-help projects such as planting, breeding, household work and sideline work, and trafficking, all of which carried out production and self-help projects, all of which carried out production self-help, reached the level of healthy people in the same village, and the income of most families increased by more than 60 percent compared with before the establishment of the Loess Organization.
