12 To sum up... High HIV/AIDS incidence in Spain. Many years, highest in Western Europe Mature concentrated epidemic Intravenous drug users (IDU), most commonly represented transmission category, but epidemic pattern has changed recently IDUs also at high risk for HCV Need to prevent HIV and HCV MTCT Need to establish information systems to know HIV & HIV-HCV prevalence in general population

26 Conclusions UAT using residual dried blood spots samples from routine neonatal screening is feasible and costeffective It provides important information on HIV infection and HCV-HIV co-infection trends, in unselected group of the Spanish population Prevalence of HIV-ACV is high in comparison with other European countries, and stable during HCV testing should always be done in HIV(+) pregnant women, as well as in all those with risk factors for HCV infection Challenges: a) extend the program to other AARR; b) add some important epidemiological variables
