Manitobans account for approximately 2.2 per cent of the confirmed cases of HIV infection in Canada since 1985 but there are no statistics to suggest how many Manitobans don't know they're living with HIV. He said some provincially mandated screening programs help, including the mandatory HIV test for all pregnant women, as well as testing for HIV in anyone who has tested positive for another sexually transmitted disease. The Public Health Agency report found men who have sex with men are the highest risk group for contracting HIV, accounting for 51 per cent of Canadians who are living with HIV and 46 per cent of new infections in 2005.

Ontario has become the first jurisdiction in North America to offer HIV tests that provide results in just 60 seconds and will double the number of sites across the province where anonymous tests are available, Health Minister George Smitherman announced Friday.

According to Manitoba Health, 2006 was the first year the number of new cases fell, in seven years. But those who work in community health believe the numbers do not reflect the reality of HIV in Manitoba. There has never been a good public education campaign to make people well aware of the risks for infection, such that those at Nine Circles Community Health Centre are "continually surprised at the lack of information people have on the basics of HIV," according to its executive director.
