Gotta agree, you would think those with the highest prevalence rates would get the most per person and those with the lowest rates would get the least. While I could understand the justification that if there is no infrastructure for delivery, it wouldn't make sense to give them out a whole lot of money. But, couldn't they justify increasing the allotment amount by working with those nations to actually create and maintain an infrastructure? I just got done doing a study on the WHO's HealthMapper program. They implemented HIV/AIDS/STI's to the GIS program in 2003. Perhaps they should utilize that program to work on building infrastructures, road accessibility, and health facilities for those underfunded. That's some crazy stuff there.
