Global fight against HIV is at a critical turning point: Report

By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

A new UNAIDS report, released at the 26th International AIDS Conference, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil has warned that the global fight against HIV is at a critical turning point, with funding cuts threatening to reverse decades of progress.

UNAIDS is calling on governments and international partners to restore funding, strengthen prevention programmes and protect community-led HIV services to keep the world on track to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.

The special report indicates that reductions in international funding and cuts to HIV prevention and community services are likely to fuel a resurgence of the epidemic.
