In his clarification and statement, "Last year, the MOH, the United Nations Aids Programme (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization (WHO) jointly estimated China's AIDS epidemic, and the three parts are now making a final appraisal of the estimates.” As per the last estimates of 2003, China had about 840,000 HIV carriers and nearly 80,000 AIDS patients. The financial up gradation of the budget for health sector by the Chinese government on AIDS prevention work to 800 million yuan (99.10 million US dollars) in 2005 from 100 million yuan (12.39 million US dollars) in 2002 is proof enough.
