One of the greatest challenges facing the global AIDS response is that of stalled progress on HIV prevention among adults. This state of affairs has been highlighted in the 2016 World AIDS Report produced by UNAIDS.According to the report, the insights revealed by the life-cycle approach must be leveraged to address the glaring challenge manifested by the fact that new infections among young women aged 15–24 years have declined by a mere six percent between 2010 and 2015.However,Andy Pettitte Jersey, the rate of new HIV infections among 25–49-year-old men and women is essentially flat. But there is no jubilation in the latter since new infections appear to be rising among people who inject drugs and men who have sex with men.In fact UNAIDS, in July 2016,NFL Jerseys China Cheap, warned that this prevention gap is a threat to future progress towards the end of AIDS. The report points out that “The Prevention gap report shows how some countries have achieved decline in new HIV infections among adults of 50 percent or more over the last 10 years, while many others have not made measurable progress or experienced worrying increases in new HIV infections.”But measures to close this gap are readily available,Wholesale Jerseys China, according to the report which points out that “A combination of HIV risk awareness, economic empowerment and oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is a potentially powerful HIV prevention method for young women living in within extremely challenging economic and social circumstances.”Added to this, it has been highlighted that social protection measures such as cash transfers and free education have been shown to dramatically reduce economically-driven sex among 12–18-year-old girls.Further still, assisted partner notification and self-test kits have been shown to increase access to HIV testing among men.The report highlights that cities and countries that have put in place truly comprehensive HIV programmes tailored to the needs of key populations have successfully reduced new HIV infections among sex workers,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, people who inject drugs and men who have sex with men. These evidence-informed, high-impact approaches must be consistently applied across the life cycle, using a location–population approach that prioritizes the geographical areas and populations in greatest need.STRONG GLOBAL FOUNDATIONAccording to the report,Bobby Orr Jersey, redoubled efforts to close the prevention gap can be built on a foundation of unparalleled global advocacy and financial commitment. In fact it was noted that strategic global partnerships have already put the elimination of mother-to-child transmission within sight.Twenty-one countries in Africa have worked with UNAIDS and the United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to reduce new infections among children aged 0–14 years by 51 percent since 2010, the report adds.Further, it has been revealed that efforts focused on children,Jerseys Cheap NFL, adolescent girls and young women are being guided by a new framework entitled: Start Free Stay Free AIDS Free. Governments and civil society,NCAA Hockey Jerseys, the report has amplified,Wholesale NFL China Jerseys, are also working with the United Nations system within the High-Level Task Force on Women, Girls, Gender Equality and HIV in Eastern and Southern Africa to raise greater awareness of the disproportionate HIV risks faced by adolescent girls and young women.The 90–90–90 targets, launched by UNAIDS at the 2014 International AIDS Conference, has rallied global efforts on HIV testing and treatment, and improved focus on the viral suppression required to realize the full preventative effect of treatment. Antiretroviral therapy is now accessed by 18.2 million (16.1 million–19.0 million) people living with HIV.Consistently though, strong scale-up of treatment has seen AIDS-related deathsPlummet by 45 percent, from a peak of about two million (1.7 million–2.3 million) in 2005 to about 1.1 million (940 000–1.3 million) in 2015.More and more adults living with HIV are over the age of 50 years. Age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease are more common among people living with HIV, and antiretroviral drug resistance poses a significant threat to people who have been living with HIV for many years. However, mounting cases of drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) are threatening to slow steady reductions in deaths among people living with HIV caused by TB disease, according to the UNAIDS report. It has been revealed too that women living with HIV remain at heightened risk of developing cervical cancer due to insufficient coverage of human papillomavirus immunization programmes in low- and middle-income countries, and an estimated 10 million people who inject drugs have hepatitis C infection.Moreover,Cheap Soccer Jerseys Authentic, it has been deduced that “achieving the 2020 target of fewer than 500,000 AIDS-related deaths annually will require taking AIDS out of isolation through people-centred systems for universal health coverage, including treatment for TB, cervical cancer and hepatitis B and C.”
