Chinese Health Minister Gao Qiang
delivers a speech during the "National Migrant Workers HIV/AIDS
Awareness Campaign" ceremony to mark World AIDS Day in Beijing
December 1, 2005. Chinese health officials are grappling with when and
how to announce new estimates of China's AIDS epidemic and are facing an
unusual problem which is that previous estimates may be too high. For
three years, Beijing has said it has about 840,000 people with HIV, but
this figure was a broad projection arrived at by inferring the infection
rates among key "risk groups".
