After a decade of phenomenal growth, donor funding for low- and middle-income nations fell 7 percent between 2012 and 2017.

Boasting a 77 percent viral suppression rate, the hard-hit African nation has already surpassed UNAIDS’s epidemic-control targets for 2020.

A 2010 policy to rapidly treat all those newly diagnosed with HIV has proved highly successful.

This association held true even when researchers controlled for changing rates of viral suppression of HIV in 2012 to 2016 records.

The newly released PARTNER2 study documented 77,000 condomless anal sex acts between mixed-HIV-status men; Opposites Attract had 12,000.

The evidence remains inconclusive, with a few reports of women with a very low viral load transmitting HIV to their babies.

The study of mixed-HIV-status gay couples prompted the CDC to conclude that undetectable people have effectively no risk of passing on HIV.

In 2015, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention published a study claiming the risk reduction figure was only 70 percent.

Everyone needs to come prepared to share their thoughts on what it will take to end the HIV epidemic in America.

A survey of Australian men who have sex with men conducted in 2016 found a low proportion trusted HIV treatment as prevention of the virus.

An Australian study found that a recent spike in PrEP use coincided with a swift drop in condom use among both those on and off PrEP.

Hollywood reporter Karl Schmid didn’t think coming out as HIV positive on Instagram would make any waves. Then social media surprised him.
