STORYLINE
A new report released by UNAIDS in Geneva shows that more than15 million people are now on life-saving antiretroviral medication, double the number of people on treatment just 5 years ago.
Ahead of World AIDS Day 2015 on December 1st, Michel Sidibé, the Executive Director of UNAIDS said today (24 Nov), “If we manage to cease the next 5 years, if we manage to sustain our investment and make sure that we can double the numbers of people put on treatment, we can really break the backbone of this epidemic. We can help to certainly quicken the pace and help us to control the epidemic, and go for ending HIV/Aids by certainly 2030”.
Michel Sidibé stressed, “If we manage to do that one, we will be able to avoid 28 million new infections, we will be able to avoid almost 22 million deaths and our cost effectiveness will be evident in term of return on investment because any donors will bring at least 17 dollars on investment”.
The new report called “Focus on location and population: on the Fast-Track to end AIDS by 2030” shows that countries are getting on the Fast-Track to end AIDS by 2030 as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
The report gives for the first time more than 50 examples of communities, cities and countries that are using innovative approaches to reach more people with life-changing HIV services and end their epidemics.
At the end of 2014, UNAIDS estimates that new HIV infections had fallen by 35% since the peak in 2000 and AIDS related deaths have fallen by 42% since the 2004 peak.
In the report UNAIDS identifies 35 Fast-Track countries that account for 90% of new HIV infections. Focusing on location and population and programmes that deliver the greatest impact will reap huge benefits by 2030.
Today, 22 million people are still being left behind in the response to HIV. According to UNAIDS, by adopting their Fast-Track approach through strong leadership and investment within the communities, cities and countries most affected, the AIDS epidemic can be ended by 2030 as part of the Sustainable Development Goals.
