Request for information on effect of HIV on Indian economy

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I am a student of public health at Boston University. I'm gladdened to see

that people are genuinely interested in saving India from the brink of the

AIDS epidemic.My primary interest lies in how HIV/AIDS will affect the

Indian economy.I have been hunting for a long long time for prevalence and

incidence rates of the disease in different economic sectors, like the

textile industry, IT sector,agriculture sector etc. Could you please point

me in the right direction? Is there any reliable data available at all, or

do I have to initiate an independant study to discover the same......

Thank you very much,

sincerely,

Amgela Chaudhuri
