Erratum Erratum to " A schematic age-structured compartment model of the impact of antiretroviral on HIV incidence and prevalence " [Math. In a previous paper [1], we developed a model to deal with the impact of antiretroviral therapy on HIV/AIDS epidemic. Unfortunately, Fig. 2 was truncated in press. The correct figure below shows what appears to be a dramatic effect of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in the incidence of AIDS cases in Brazil. Fig. 2. Reduction in the incidence rates in Brazil 2 years after the introduction of universal highly active antiretrovirus treatment. A schematic age-structured compartment model of the impact of antiretroviral on HIV incidence and prevalence, Math.
