Sharing used needles among drug addicts, has been

Sharing used needles among drug addicts, has been linked to about 
70 percent of known HIV infections in Georgia. This is a story told by Georgia’s 
first recipient of free, state-sponsored anti-retroviral therapy. ARVs suppress HIV 
but cannot cure it. At the time of the story, October 2003, only 5 people were 
receiving ARVs for free, paid by the state; at least 50 people needed them. About 
500 people living with HIV have registered with the government. The real total of 
people living with HIV could be three times that. Georgia has been granted USD 
12 million over 5 years from the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB and Malaria, 
mostly to fight HIV/Aids.
