Shafaqna English- 1.3 million people were infected with HIV in 2024 as foreign aid cuts disrupt treatment, testing and community-led programs worldwide; the World Health Organization (WHO) warned.
Marking World AIDS Day, the WHO said the global AIDS response has reached a “critical crossroads” with new infections disproportionately affecting the world’s most vulnerable communities.
“We face significant challenges, with cuts to international funding and prevention stalling,” said Director-General Ghebreyesus. “At the same time we have significant opportunities … expanding access to new tools must be priority number one.”
