Centralist policy. An obstacle for HIV prevention.

Moraila Santos J; International Conference on AIDS.

Int Conf AIDS. 1993 Jun 6-11; 9: 934 (abstract no. PO-D33-4300).

Third world's countries, like as Mexico, have a centralist policy.--They represent a backward movement for detection and treatment of--AIDS. These countries' organizative structure, with central characteristics, do not let their provinces' people to be on time about cientist development. By example, western blot proofs can only be made in the center of this country. Center's patient only get new treatment or those treatments may also be gotten at rich states. Investigation is established by protocol and it is made in the capital of our country; were medicine advances are always out of time. The few doctors who are receiving training, live in Mexico city. Ungobernment groups have their seats in the Capital and in a few most rich states like: Jalisco, Nuevo Leon and Baja California. As a finally information, we can say that conventions are realized at the same city: Mexico, D.F. Thus, it is evident that this kind of policy leaves approximately--around of 50% of the total national population without treatment or information about that very dangerous illness and, it is growing so fast. We have to try of to change this king of policy for another. We need to count with overall policies which really let to Mexico be a development country.
