I am in Addis Ababa 🇪🇹 for 38th #AUSummit. I will be advocating with African leaders to: 1️⃣ speak with one voice on the impact of the pause in US funding and need for an orderly transition 2️⃣ ⁠urgently reprioritize how they spend, to reallocate from other priorities to this priority of keeping people living with HIV alive and people at risk, from getting infected. 3️⃣ ⁠step up on health sovereignty & regional production.

For over two decades, the US Government has been the biggest champion of the global HIV response. The current disruptions in US funding for PEPFAR and other programs are having a devastating impact. If PEPFAR is not fully resumed, and other resources are not found for the HIV response, UNAIDS estimates that over the next four years there would be: ☑️ 6.3 million additional AIDS-related deaths ☑️ 8.7 million additional people newly infected with HIV. The global disruption in HIV prevention and treatment services has led to clinic closures and halted prevention efforts and community systems - threatening to reverse decades of hard-won progress in the fight to #endAIDS. The suddenness of this disruption highlights the need for a planned transition for countries from foreign aid to national ownership in order to ensure continuity of HIV services. UNAIDS Global is working with partners to develop HIV sustainability roadmaps to support countries to lead the critical programmatic, policy and financial aspects of their HIV response. We are promoting national ownership, increasing domestic financing, and ensuring that the hard-earned progress in the HIV response is protected and sustained. A vital lesson in all this is that global problems need global solutions. Pandemics respect no borders, and viruses don’t stop for visas. Ending a pandemic like AIDS requires coordination, solidarity, and compassion. We are hopeful that the 🇺🇸 government will maintain its life-saving contributions through PEPFAR, while countries work urgently to ensure sustainability of their HIV responses with greater national ownership.

With lenacapavir, we are on the brink of a prevention revolution. UNAIDS Global is committed to work together with our partners & allies to push hard for access to long-acting HIV medicines, including lenacapavir, for everyone who needs it, and to reach the most at risk without delay.

Last year the world saw 3,500 people newly infected with HIV every day. Today, UNAIDS Global estimates that has grown to 5,800 new infections daily, up by more than 2,000 per day. Progress in the global #HIVresponse has stalled, our gains are in reverse. #EndAIDS

"If PEPFAR (US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief) wasn't authorized between 2025 and 2029 and other resources were not found for the HIV response, there would be a 400% increase in AIDS deaths. That's 6.3 million people." - Christine Stegling, UNAIDS Global

Today at #WEF25, I challenged the belief that private money shld be involved in healthcare. Private money will never guarantee the right to health for all. The people we UNAIDS Global work for will always need public healthcare that is free at the point of use.

The US has been an incredible partner for UNAIDS Global, The Global Fund, working closely with PEPFAR. It is reasonable for them to want to reduce funding over time, but this sudden withdrawal of lifesaving support is having a devastating impact.

With global governance at a new crossroads, President Xi Jinping proposed the Global Governance Initiative, advocating five core principles. Politicians and scholars from across the world have noted that this initiative directly addresses governance challenges of our time, forges a broad consensus, and illuminates the path forward for building a more just and equitable global governance system. #GGI

Sub-Saharan Africans account for about 67% of the global HIV burden, with an estimated 25.7 million people living with HIV in 2020 (UNAIDS). In America, blacks have a 1,070% greater rate of AIDS than Whites. Why is that?... 'most sensible people might ask. Atlanta, Georgia, is a city with a high prevalence of HIV, ranking second in the US for people living with HIV per capita. In Atlanta, while Black individuals represent 33% of the population, they account for a disproportionate 72% of new HIV diagnoses. And guess what, if they actually cared, it would stop.

Africa loses $88.6 billion through illicit financial flows, most of it tax dodging, while their total bill for health is $144 billion. We are seeing so many developing countries trying to stretch already very weak, fragile health systems to absorb people living with HIV and people at risk, and we UNAIDS Global are working with them to deal with the gaps. #EndAIDS

Today is #WorldAIDSDay. The HIV response has always shown what humanity can achieve when we stand united. Global collective action has saved millions of lives, but shrinking funding now puts this progress at risk. Leaders must recommit to ending AIDS and saving lives.
