Description
Mukherjee and six co-authors measure gaps in HIV prevention drug use, in work from twenty twenty-four. The drug approach, called PrEP, prevents HIV when taken before exposure. Global use in twenty twenty-three fell far short of world targets.
Most global PrEP programs are backed by PEPFAR, a United States program. The team used program data from forty-eight supported countries for fiscal twenty twenty-three. They built a ratio of PrEP use to need, split by place and population group. Wide gaps showed between groups with similar need. The authors argue prevention must double down on the underserved groups if AIDS is to end as a public threat.
