I fully support the suggestions to include people of 50. The number of people in Uganda (where I work) -- and other parts of sub-Saharan Africa as noted in other posts -- living with HIV and over 50 is rapidly increasing. The DHS could be an invaluable source of information on these many different people. We are noticing HIV-incidence among people aged over 65 -- which underlines that we are not only looking at a population on long-term treatment.
