Scientific breakthroughs over the decades have enabled huge progress in the HIV response.

The latest innovation, long-acting medicines that prevent HIV with injections just twice a year, could be a game-changer.

🤔 Can I get HIV from shaking someone’s hand or standing close to someone living with HIV who is coughing?

Answer is simple: NO.

Learn the facts and debunk the myths.

Science has made it possible for people living with HIV, including pregnant women, to live healthy lives and protect their babies from HIV.​
But sudden funding cuts in 2025 disrupted essential care.​
