HIV infection remains a major public health threat worldwide. Around 37 million people are living with HIV and only 21.7 million were accessing antiretroviral treatment in 2017. Since the start of the epidemic 77.3 million have become infected and 35.4 million have died from AIDS-related illness. There are 1.7 million new HIV infections every year and it is estimated that 75% of the people living with HIV know their status, among those 79% are accessing treatment and 81% of those accessing treatment are virally suppressed.
