‘If the international community acts, 3.6 million new HIV infections and 1.7 million AIDS-related deaths will be prevented this decade, he said.’
“We must ensure universal access to evidence-informed services, such as testing and treatment, as well as global cooperation on new technologies,” he said. International solidarity in the form of sustainable funding is also crucially needed.
