Around 4,000 people contracted HIV infection every day across the world, the United Nations said on Sunday while urging countries to increase investment in disease prevention and access to treatment.
"Progress in the reduction of new HIV infections is slowing & every day 4,000 people become infected around the world. @UNAIDS urges countries to increase investment in HIV prevention & access to treatment," the United Nations Tweeted today.
The latest data from the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) on the global HIV response reveals that during the last two years of COVID-19 and other global crises, progress against the HIV pandemic has faltered, resources have shrunk, and millions of lives are at risk as a result.
