The ECDC Report on migration and infectious diseases in the EU is composed of a series of disease-specific documents presenting data analysis, evidence summary, interpretation and guidance on interventions in the field of migration and selected infectious diseases. This background note complements and introduces the disease-specific reports. It provides an overview of migration and infectious diseases in the EU and a brief summary of issues related to migration and health, and also points out possible areas for future public health research and intervention. The first disease-specific documents to be published are on HIV/AIDS. Tuberculosis and vaccine preventable diseases (measles) will follow and other diseases will be considered for inclusion in the future. The project also includes an overview of projects related to health and migration/ethnic minorities funded by the European Health Programme 2003–2008.

This document describes the burden of HIV infection in migrant populations and its contribution to the epidemiology of HIV in the period 1999–2006. Data from ECDC/former EuroHIV were used, globally and for each EU/EEA country, and absolute numbers and percentages of cases of AIDS and HIV were examined by geographical origin and year, stratified by sex and transmission categories. This report is part of the ECDC Report on migration and infectious diseases in the EU, a series of documents presenting data analysis, evidence summary, interpretation and guidance on interventions in the field of migration and selected infectious diseases.

This report summarises the findings of a review, commissioned by ECDC, of access to HIV prevention, treatment and care among migrants in the EU conducted between May and September 2008. Based on information gathered through a survey of respondents in EU/EEA countries and through a literature review, it provides an overview of the current situation and material for future policy, research and services aiming at improving access of migrant populations to HIV services.

ECDC has published the first disease-specific reports in the Migrant health series. They focus on HIV/AIDS epidemiology, describing the burden of HIV infection in migrant populations, and access to prevention and care among migrant populations.
