16 projections indicate, for the next few years:* - an increase in the annual number of new AIDS cases in the Heterosexual and Other transmission categories, with special emphasis on the latter; - a slowing down of the annual number of new AIDS cases in the Injecting Drug Users transmission category; - an apparent change in the decreasing tendency in he Homo/Bisexual category projections show that the AIDS epidemic will remain a major public health problem in Portugal in the coming years. 14 *Given the Portuguese epidemic and notification system specificities, the cited paper mentions several potential sources of error in the analysis, for example, the incubation period distribution is not precisely known, there is inaccuracy in the observed disease incidence over time and assumptions made relative to the underreporting percentage. Yet the most important inaccuracy is probably the introduction of HAART, which should be taken into account and is not. 14 Amaral, J.A., E.P. Pereira & M.T. Paixão.
