RESPONSE FROM:   

    Thanks for your post.

    In my humble opinion, there's really no single more important issue for the global HIV epidemic than prevention of mother-to-child transmission. The WHO has recently issued new guidelines for pMTCT. They can be found here:

    Best of luck. Let us know how your program is doing. BY
