In the first quarter of 2025, data showed a decline in HIV diagnoses and treatment coverage among people living with HIV (PLHIV). Meanwhile, the data on viral load suppression for those on antiretroviral therapy (ART) remained unchanged.
This decline signals a setback in our journey toward achieving the national 95-95-95 targets by 2030.
As we observe International AIDS Candlelight Memorial Day, let us stand together to break the silence, end the stigma, and support our loved ones living with HIV so they may live full, healthy, and dignified lives.
Take the initiative. Get tested. Seek treatment. Support with compassion.
