This has been the toughest year for the global HIV response in decades. It feels like the world is looking away again.
Every minute, someone dies from AIDS-related causes. Not for lack of tools but for lack of attention and political will.
This #WorldAIDSDay, don’t look away.

Half of the people newly diagnosed with HIV through NHS England’s opt-out A&E testing had dangerously low white blood cell counts, and more than 90% of those newly diagnosed had never been tested for HIV before. This data from @ukhsa.bsky.social shows how crucial routine, stigma-free HIV testing is.
