BackgroundThe HIV prevention community is largely familiar with Haiti's history of high prevalence of HIV. However, health workers and others might not be aware of Haiti's robust scientific and clinical response to the epidemic or the particular character of the Haitian epidemic, which is complicated by high rates of co-infection with malaria, tuberculosis (TB), and several neglected tropical diseases (NTDs; Beau de Rochars et al. 2004; Hotez, Bottazzi, Franco-Paredes, Ault, & Periago, 2008; Pape, 2004; Streit & Lafontant, 2008). These infections compound the challenge of HIV prevention and treatment in ways rarely seen by researchers and practitioners in developed countries. The Haitian Study Group on Kaposi's Sarcoma and Opportunistic Infections (GHESKIO), for example, has been instrumental in Haiti's public health efforts against HIV in urban areas. In fact, development of GHESKIO in Haiti has paralleled US institutions with regard to HIV primary care and research, having been founded after detection of Kaposi's sarcoma and the unusual opportunistic diseases that first signaled the epidemic.
