This technical document consists of epidemiological profiles (fact-sheets) for States and districts based on information available from multiple data sources including the HIV Sentinel Surveillance (HSS) and the In...tegrated Biological and Behavioural Surveillance (IBBS). Given the need for focussed prevention efforts in low/high prevalence and vulnerable States/districts, the information presented will be useful for policy makers, program planners at national/State/ district level, researchers, and academicians in identification of areas for priority attention and also to derive meaningful conclusions for programme planning, implementation, monitoring and scale-up. This document will be a quick reference for the HIV/AIDS situation in a State/district, risk and safe behaviour of the high risk groups, their level of knowledge about STIs and HIV/AIDS, experience of violence, HIV testing and ART awareness and exposure to HIV/AIDS prevention.

Health care waste can be difficult to treat and dispose of safely. The environmental and health impacts of waste put extra pressure on resources. Therefore, it is important to try and reduce the quantities of waste wherever possible. Ensure waste is segregated properly at the point of disposal. It i...s cheaper and easier to manage general waste through a municipal waste system than infectious or sharps waste which needs treatment before final disposal. Organic general wastes like food and paper can be composted rather than being wasted. Non- hazardous general waste may also be sorted for recycling.

Este manual está dirigido al personal de salud que trabaja en establecimientos periféricos y que utiliza pruebas de diagnóstico rápido (PDR) para la malaria. Proporciona instrucciones prácticas para garantizar el buen funcionamiento de estas pruebas en condiciones muchas veces difíciles, espec...ialmente en zonas remotas y de clima cálido.
Se explican procedimientos clave para la recepción de las pruebas (verificación de daños, caducidad, condiciones de transporte), el almacenamiento (selección del lugar más fresco, control de temperatura, ventilación, uso de métodos sencillos como depósitos en el suelo o contenedores que enfrían por evaporación) y el transporte seguro, ya sea por tierra o agua, con especial atención a evitar la exposición al calor.
Además, el manual incluye pautas para la gestión de inventarios, la rotación de existencias (usando primero las pruebas con vencimiento más próximo), y el registro del uso para evitar desperdicios y asegurar la disponibilidad continua.
Finalmente, se aborda la gestión de desechos peligrosos y generales generados por el uso de las pruebas, promoviendo su separación adecuada, almacenamiento seguro y eliminación apropiada (como fosas protegidas o incineración controlada), con el fin de proteger al personal y a la comunidad.
