In the final installment of the series based on “Tomorrow Is a Long Time: Tijuana’s Unchecked HIV/AIDS Epidemic,” writer Jon Cohen explores what it would take to end the AIDS epidemic in Tijuana by 2030, as called for by UNAIDS. Dr. Davey Smith of UC San Diego argues for aggressive, frequent HIV testing in high-risk groups and shows how cutting-edge genetic science can unravel how the virus moves through communities. Cohen explains the benefits of harm reduction strategies, such as providing clean needles and methadone to thwart HIV transmission. And, in an intervention tailored specifically to this epidemic, Steffanie Strathdee and Tom Patterson’s group at UC San Diego has begun training the Tijuana Police about HIV and urging officers to see drug addiction as a sickness, not a crime.

In the first of a four-part series, UC San Diego epidemiologist Steffanie Strathdee and psychologist Tom Patterson start the story of how their research teams have traced the spread of HIV in Tijuana. It opens at a wound clinic in El Bordo, the section of the Tijuana River Canal where migrants and others shoot heroin and, in some cases, share needles. Dr. Patricia Gonzalez-Zuniga offers first aid as she and her staff recruit participants into Strathdee’s Proyecto El Cuete, a study which focuses on HIV prevention for people who inject drugs. Also featured is the inspiring Susi Leal Ricardi, an HIV-positive outreach worker who was once addicted to heroin and had lived in El Bordo. Leal overcame her addiction, has been clean for 14 years, and with the help of antiretroviral drugs, she has fully suppressed her HIV. She is now El Cuete’s “star promotora.” The HIV/SIDA series is based on the book “Tomorrow Is a Long Time.” Series: "UCTV Prime" [Public Affairs] [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 30005]

Much attention has focused on Mexico's transition to electoral democracy in recent years. But how does it compare with other nations of Latin America? Is it typical of the region, or is it "unique" in specific ways? UC San Diego Professor Peter H. Smith compares Mexico with Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and Guatemala. The results yield insight on the pace of democratization, civil-military relations, party structures, separation of powers, and policy performance. Mexico fares relatively well along a number of key dimensions, argues Smith, and prospects for continuing consolidation of its democracy are surprisingly strong.
