Abstract

Background: Reflecting on progress and challenges in meeting global human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) targets is often done ahead of World AIDS Day. This article reflects on progress and the continuing challenges in meeting targets in South Africa (SA).

Objective: To review policy and implementation related progress and continuing challenges towards eliminating HIV as a public health threat by 2030.

Method: Policy analysis and review of modeling data from Thembisa 4.3.

Results: South Africa has made significant progress in the adoption of policies with two exceptions. While there are gaps in reaching the 90-90-90 implementation targets, progress has been made in the past decade.

Conclusion: While progress has been made in the past decade towards the global targets, much work remains to ensure that HIV transmission is curtailed and those that require treatment are initiated on treatment and are virally suppressed.

2020年世界艾滋病日:反思全球和南非的进展和持续的挑战。

背景:在实现全球人类免疫缺陷病毒(艾滋病毒)目标方面的进展和挑战往往是在世界艾滋病日之前进行的。本文反映了南非在实现目标方面取得的进展和面临的持续挑战。目标:审查到2030年消除艾滋病毒这一公共卫生威胁的相关政策和执行进展和持续挑战。方法:对Thembisa 4.3的建模数据进行政策分析和回顾。结果:南非在通过政策方面取得了重大进展，但有两个例外。虽然在实现“90-90-90”执行目标方面存在差距，但在过去十年中取得了进展。结论:虽然过去十年在实现全球目标方面取得了进展，但仍有许多工作要做，以确保减少艾滋病毒的传播，并确保那些需要治疗的人开始治疗并抑制病毒。
