Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. ince the early 1980s, the HIV epidemic has been raging within the S 1 United States and around the world.

After a decade of struggling with mounting surveys of risk behavior, clinical trials, and behavioral interventions that were based primarily on experience with gay communities in large cities and, subsequently, on the needs of injection drug users, we have not given programs for women the attention they require if they are to be meaningful, effective, and...
