The project covered Tbilisi, the capital, and included 34 clinics that provide women's healthcare. Out of 35,385 pregnant women starting prenatal care in clinics involved in the project, 91% (32,262) had received HIV counseling and, among those counseled, 94% (30,330) were tested for HIV antibodies; 14 pregnant women (<0.001%) were found to be HIV-infected.
