A new report titled 'Going the Extra Mile to End the HIV Epidemic' highlights that every country worldwide must do more to end the HIV epidemic. The report, commissioned by Gilead Sciences (GILD), offers a roadmap to help countries achieve the United Nations' goal of eliminating HIV by 2030. Despite having the necessary tools and resources, no country is close to this goal.
The report examines programs in nine Western countries and emphasizes the need for national strategies focused on four key areas: broader use of prevention, large-scale screening for diagnosis, expansion of community-based care, and use of tools to measure quality of life. It also addresses social factors like stigma, discrimination, and health equity that hinder progress.
The authors stress that while scientific innovation and healthcare access have improved, millions still live with HIV globally. They call for urgent action in the next five years to make significant progress in prevention, testing, and treatment of HIV.
