  • * Projected using Estimation and Projection Package 2010.

  • Due to a lack of data on unmet need for family planning in Angola, the reduction in new child infections due to family planning in Angola was not incorporated.

  • The 2015 target for ARV coverage in Botswana, Namibia, South Africa and Swaziland was set to 95% since those countries had coverage values close to 90% in 2009.
