Global HIV/AIDS burden trends and impact of funding cuts

A study published in Lancet HIV, utilizing data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2023, examines the global, regional, and national trends of the HIV/AIDS burden from 1990 to 2023. The research highlights that while there has been a general improvement in the HIV burden over the last two decades, gendered social determinants—specifically intimate partner violence (IPV)—continue to increase vulnerability among women.

The study also forecasts the potential negative impacts of declining financial support and funding cuts on the epidemic through 2030. This comes amid concerns regarding the sustainability of resources required to manage the disease and mitigate social risk factors.
