Developments:
World Economics has just published a paper I wrote with David Bloom and others on the impact of HIV/AIDS on business. The main finding is that firms around the world are becoming more worried about the disease and experiencing greater impacts from it. Only in the very hardest hit countries, however (where adult prevalence is above 10%), do firms start taking serious action to tackle the threat. Firms in countries with generalised epidemics but where prevalence is below 10% do very little. Such inaction is likely to cost them in the long-run.
