Namibia's AIDS statistics provide glimmer of hope: "NAMIBIA marked World AIDS Day last week with the news that the rate of HIV infection appears to have dropped slightly, from 22 per cent in 2002 to 19,8 per cent this year.
These preliminary figures are based on testing pregnant women at ante-natal clinics every two years to indicate the prevalence rate in the country."
This would, presumably, be the ELISA test that I've seen mentioned in other articles on AIDS statistics in Africa.
