RT by @ECDC_EU: Underdiagnosis and late HIV diagnoses hold back progress to #EndAIDS in the Region

A new WHO/@ECDC_EU report shows over 2.6 m people have been diagnosed with HIV in the Region.

Nearly 1 in 3 people living with HIV still don’t know their HIV status👇

RT by @ECDC_EU: Ahead of #WorldAIDSDay, we’ve launched the most recent HIV/AIDS surveillance report for Europe together with @ECDC_EU.
 
2.6 million people are currently diagnosed with #HIV in the WHO European Region.
 
It shows that underdiagnosis and late diagnosis remain the main challenges in our efforts to reduce HIV/AIDS.
 
Only 70% of all people living with HIV in Europe and Central Asia are aware of their status.
 
The biggest remaining hurdles in our region are restrictive and intolerant environments and even criminalization of HIV transmission – compounding stubborn stigma and discrimination – as well as inconsistent uptake of evidence-based interventions.
 
We must

🔹increase funding for HIV prevention
🔹create safe spaces for people to access services
🔹normalize testing
🔹ensure that policies are compassionate - not punitive.

R to @ECDC_EU: They key findings of the report demonstrate a critical need for prevention, early testing, diagnosis and access to treatment to improve people's health outcomes and reduce transmission, as well as the urgent need to reduce #stigma around #HIV.

R to @ECDC_EU: There is a worrying gap between the number of #HIV diagnoses and the estimated number of infections across the WHO European Region.

Only 70% of all people living with HIV in the WHO European Region are aware of their status.
