"The five-page document outlines the program's progress as of the end of fiscal year 2011 in various areas," including the provision of antiretroviral treatment, care, and support; HIV testing and counseling for pregnant women; and prevention of mother-to-child transmission services, the blog notes. The report includes sections on "leading with science," "smart investments," "country ownership," and "shared responsibility," according to the blog (Mazzotta, 5/4).
