HIV and AIDS Statistics
- In 2022, approximately 39 million people worldwide were living with HIV.
- By the end of 2022, 29.8 million people were receiving antiretroviral therapy, showing significant progress since 2010.
- New HIV infections have reduced by 59% since their peak in 1995, with 1.3 million new infections in 2022, compared to 3.2 million in 1995.
- In 2022, women and girls accounted for 46% of all newly reported HIV infections worldwide.
- Around 630,000 people died from AIDS-related illnesses globally in 2022, marking a 69% reduction in AIDS-related deaths since their peak in 2004.
- While progress has been made in testing and treatment, achieving the 95-95-95 targets (95% knowing their status, 95% accessing treatment, and 95% virally suppressed) remains a challenge, with only five countries reaching these targets in 2022.
