New report underlines the threat to universal access to HIV prevention, treatment and care due to a slow-down in treatment scale-up and waning political will

sources," said IAS President Elly Katabira. "Improved efficiencies are essential, however the scale of current unmet need and the fact that an additional 30-50% of HIV-positive people are eligible to start ART immediately under new WHO treatment guidelines, means universal access cannot and will not be achieved without a substantial increase in resources for AIDS. At this critical juncture in the international AIDS response, we should not be talking about doing more with less, but doing more with more."

The report confirms that the HIV response has rapidly scaled up in recent years as a result not only of increased bilateral and multilateral funding, but also due to the reduction in the cost of treatment and the application of innovative methods of prevention. Key stakeholders in the HIV response have also adapted to the effective utilization of additional health-related platforms such as maternal and child health and family planning. The progress and results that have been achieved, while significant, remain below the targets for universal access. Programme scale-up based on demonstrated good practice, programme efficiency gains, and the continued call for increased resources to avert millions of infections worldwide, are essential to ensure that Universal Access to the prevention, care and treatment of HIV and AIDS will be a reality by 2015.
