WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA SEES PROGRESS IN HIV FIGHT, BUT CHALLENGES REMAIN —
UNAIDS


A NEW REPORT FROM THE JOINT UNITED NATIONS PROGRAMME ON HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) OFFERS
A GLIMMER OF HOPE IN THE FIGHT AGAINST HIV IN WEST AND CENTRAL AFRICA, CITING A
DROP IN NEW HIV INFECTIONS AND INCREASING TREATMENT IN THE REGION.

Full Story Summary

The annual number of new HIV infections in West and Central Africa fell by 46
per cent between 2010 and 20230, according to the Joint United Nations Programme
on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). 

Berthilde Gahongayirein, the UNAIDS Regional Director for the region, disclosed
this earlier this week during the unveiling of the latest Regional AIDS Update
Report in Dakar, Senegal. The report highlights significant strides in the fight
against HIV but stresses the urgent need for continued efforts.

“Almost exactly 10 years ago, an MSF [Médecins Sans Frontières, also known as
Doctors Without Borders] report described our region as being ‘left behind’,”
Gahongayirein said. “Today, despite difficult political and security contexts
and the lasting impact of Covid-19, we are showing encouraging results.”

However, she noted with concern that key populations, adolescents, and young
women remain disproportionately affected. “In 2023, adolescent girls and young
women accounted for 19% of all new HIV infections in our region. In this age
group, by 2022, 8 out of 10 new infections were among girls,” the director
said.

While disparities persist, the report highlights progress in HIV treatment. The
number of adults receiving antiretroviral therapy has more than doubled since
2015. Today, 81 per cent of people living with HIV know their status, 76 per
cent are receiving treatment, and 70 per cent have achieved viral load
suppression. This progress means countries like Burundi and the Democratic
Republic of Congo are nearing the ambitious 95-95-95 targets for HIV testing and
treatment.

“AIDS-related deaths have fallen by 55% between 2010 and 2023,” the
Gahongayirein stated. Yet, significant gaps remain, particularly in pediatric
HIV treatment. “Only 35% of children living with HIV were receiving treatment in
2023, and over half of the region’s pregnant women with HIV were not receiving
antiretroviral treatment.”

The fight against HIV goes beyond treatment. UNAIDS highlights the ongoing
struggle against stigma and discrimination. Surveys reveal concerning levels of
prejudice, with 33 per cent of people in Gabon and 79 per cent in Mauritania
holding discriminatory attitudes towards people living with HIV.

Additionally, the UNAIDS Regional Director for West and Central Africa said the
age of consent for HIV testing remains restricted in 10 countries, requiring
parental or guardian consent for those under 18. This issue, as raised in a May
2021 HumAngle investigative report, “The Discreet Lives Of Women Living With HIV
In Nigerian IDP Camps,” can be a barrier to essential healthcare.

Gahongayirein also pointed out that funding remains a crucial challenge.

“While international resources for HIV increased by 10% in 2023, domestic
resources fell by 3%, making countries more reliant on external donors. The
UNAIDS has proposed a new holistic approach to ensure sustainability,
encompassing political commitment, enabling laws and policies, equitable
financing, science-based services, and robust delivery systems,” according to
the UNAIDS report reviewed by HumAngle. 

Aptly named “The Urgency of the Moment: AIDS at the Crossroads,” the report
emphasises the critical need for scaling up prevention, eliminating gender
inequality, and ending HIV-related stigma and discrimination to achieve the goal
of ending AIDS by 2030. “A combination of strong political commitment, technical
expertise, and community mobilisation is needed,” Gahongayirein urged. 

The UNAIDS Regional Director thanked international partners like France,
Luxembourg, and Canada for their continued support, underscoring the
collaborative effort required to sustain progress.

“We have made progress in reducing new infections, except among adolescents. We
have made progress in access to treatment, but very few children have access to
antiretroviral treatment. The number of HIV deaths has fallen. However, we are
at a crossroads, and the urgency of the moment cannot be overstated,” she
concluded.
