Communities
Community empowerment and ownership result in a greater uptake of HIV services, a reduction in stigma and discrimination and the protection of human rights. Community-led successes must be replicated and scaled up, says new @UNAIDS report. bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
Time is running out
There is unequal and uneven progress in stopping new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths globally. New @UNAIDS #AIDSreport2019 shows the need for political leadership to expand evidence-informed services for all people affected by HIV. bit.ly/GAReport
Resources
For the first time in the past three years, the resources available for the AIDS response have declined significantly. New #AIDSreport2019 from @UNAIDS shows why the @GlobalFund should be fully funded at this critical moment in the AIDS response. bit.ly/GAReport
The gap between resource need and resource availability is widening. In 2018, the resources available for the AIDS response were nearly US$ 1 billion less than in 2017, according to #AIDSreport2019 from @UNAIDS. bit.ly/GAReport
Deaths
There has been steady progress in reducing AIDS-related deaths, as a record 23.3 million people living with HIV were accessing antiretroviral therapy in 2018. Find out more about the status of the AIDS epidemic in new @UNAIDS report: bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
Children
The new @UNAIDS reports shows that the target of 1.6 million children accessing life-saving antiretroviral therapy by 2018 has been missed, despite significant progress since 2010. bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
Young people
There has been slow progress in reducing new HIV infections among young people. Young people must have access to the info and services they need to protect themselves from HIV and to exercise their sexual and reproductive health rights. bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
Key populations
New @UNAIDS report shows that for the first time more than half of all new HIV infections are occurring among key populations and their partners. Key populations cannot be left behind in the AIDS response. bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
Young women
Despite progress in reducing new HIV infections among young women, HIV infections are still 60% higher than among young men of the same age. Targeted programmes for young women need to be expanded, says #AIDSreport2019 from @UNAIDS. bit.ly/GAReport
TB
TB-related deaths among people living with HIV have been greatly reduced. But the new #AIDSreport2019 from @UNAIDS shows that TB remains the leading cause of death among people living with HIV. bit.ly/GAReport
Discrimination
People living with HIV and key populations continue to face stigma and discrimination, which is often reinforced by criminal laws, aggressive law enforcement, harassment and violence. Find out more in this new report from @UNAIDS: bit.ly/GAReport #AIDSreport2019
PrEP
In 2018, more than 300 000 people globally took PrEP at least once as more and more countries adopt PrEP as an additional HIV prevention option. Learn more in the #AIDSreport2019 from @UNAIDS. bit.ly/GAReport
