The academic Álvaro Pop, Agency Naleb, ’says the reasons for the conversation about the situation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV / AIDS) among the Guatemalan indigenous population, with the support of other entities such as Maya Convergence Wakib Kiej.

One of the main problems have been discovered that there is a high rate of underreporting of cases in the indigenous population, which reached 30 percent.

What is found in respect of the rural Mayan population and the incidence of HIV / AIDS?

We discovered that every time there is more contagious and there are people carrying the virus do not even know they have it, especially in rural areas.

Why attribute the increase of contagion?

Everything came out of a series of new influences and contacts between the inhabitants of rural areas. Specifically with the issue of migration. For them, migrate to cities or to United States, perhaps the main reason to be suffering more contagion.

What happens to those stocks that are growing and getting even without knowing it?

Have triggered a series of difficult situations in communities and families. Due to conditions of extreme poverty, lack of social security coverage and lack of hospital care, conditions become dramatic.

What were based arriving at these conclusions?

What we are doing, but more will be from 2009 as part of a strategy that brought several institutions, is to raise interest in the topic among the sectors involved.

In reality there are no data. There’s a lot of underreporting numbers of infected people. Official data are limited. There is a 40 percent underreporting. In the national data we know that there are 30 per cent are indigenous.

What is the idea of raising the issue on the public agenda?

Will be to further prevention. There is a huge job to be done in regard to sex education. Is the challenge. The country is deeply conservative and indigenous populations in rural areas are greater still.
