At the last meeting of the National Council for HIV and AIDS (CONAVIHSIDA) in the Dominican Republic, Víctor Terrero, the Director of the Council presented the results of a national study that indicates that the prevalence rate of the immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is 0.8% in the Dominican Republic (2% in the population in Haiti https://www.icihaiti.com/en/news-28526-icihaiti-health-fight-against-hiv-aids-the-ministry-not-really-satisfied.html )

However, the Council indicated that the study found that in the Dominican Republic among persons of Haitian nationality, the rate is 4% in the construction sector and 6% among sex workers.
