The central government will provide the Balearics with 184'777 euros for its fight against AIDS. A total of 207 new cases were detected in the islands between 1999 and 2000. Nearly half of the 4.8 million euros which the government will give in aid goes to Catalonia, Madrid and Andalucia. The regions which receive the least funds are La Rioja and Cantabria. The money has been distributed in proportion to the number of cases and the population of each region.
