NEW YORK, USA, 1 December 2008 A new report from four UN agencies entitled Children and AIDS: Third Stocktaking Report, 2008 is advocating for increased HIV testing for newborns as young as six-weeks-old. It was coordinated to be released on 1 December World AIDS Day. Counselling and support is critical for new mothers living with HIV in order to help inform choices that must be made around the time of early infant diagnosis.
