MSF first intervened in Honduras in 1974

MSF is focusing increasingly on HIV/AIDS in Honduras, where the government has started to make the epidemic a priority. At a clinic in Tela, on the north coast, MSF teams provide comprehensive quality care, including ARV treatment and psychological support, to people living with HIV/AIDS. As of July 2003, 135 people were receiving ARVs through MSF's program, with many more receiving testing, counseling and care. MSF is also encouraging local authorities and NGOs to promote antiretroviral therapy and follow-up care. MSF wound up a project in Yoro focusing on Chagas disease, a parasitic infection, in August 2002 (read more about Chagas disease here).
