Merci aux communautés présentes à #AFRAVIH2026. Votre rôle est central dans la réponse au VIH. Comme je l’ai mentionné, « L’accès ne s’improvise pas. Ça s’anticipe ». Continuons à construire ensemble en intégrant pleinement votre expertise.

Unitaid and USP are supporting South Africa’s effort to identify a manufacturer to produce quality-assured lenacapavir. Expanding production in sub-Saharan Africa can diversify supply and bring innovation closer to communities that need it most. Learn more: unitaid.org/news-blog/so...

As financing contracts and countries assume greater responsibility, access to innovation cannot be left to market forces alone. We need deliberate, coordinated action to ensure new health tools reach all who need them. Read more in @thinkglobalhealth.org: www.thinkglobalhealth.org/article/the-...

As the Nobel Prize laureate Françoise Barré-Sinoussi has said, a generation free of HIV/AIDS is possible. Lenacapavir is the closest we have ever been to making her vision a reality. The question now should not be if the world can afford to support it – it’s if we can afford not to.

Those at greatest risk of infection – adolescent girls and young women, men who have sex with men, sex workers, and others – are those who stand to benefit the most.

Just as dolutegravir represented a major opportunity for people living with HIV a decade ago, lenacapavir – the twice-yearly injectable prevention drug – provides us with the potential to stop new infections in their tracks.

Resourcing this work is critical to enabling us to achieve international goals and to safeguard hard won progress. Innovations have been crucial in this progress.

Sustained – and increased – success against these challenges will depend on our collective ability to continue to accelerate access to innovative solutions that improve care while driving efficiencies that help stretch every dollar further.

Over the past two decades the Global Fund, Unitaid and many other global health actors have worked in close collaboration to transform testing, treatment and prevention for HIV, TB and malaria – saving millions of lives and billions of dollars in the process.

As a close partner in this fight, we are grateful to all the countries and supporters who have stepped up in solidarity with the millions of people in low- and middle-income countries where these global health crises are most acute.

Lenacapavir can change the course of HIV prevention, but only if all who need it can access it. With CHAI, Wits RHI and Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Unitaid secured a US$40 annual price, with generics expected by 2027. A major step toward equity and ending HIV. Learn more: www.unitaid.org/lenacapavir

We’re grateful to all who stood, spoke and shared at our #IAS2025 booth. Your feedback helps shape how Unitaid does business. Health innovation must start and end with communities, because only when communities lead can we ensure equitable, effective and lasting impact.

This is great news. To turn promise into public health impact, we must pair an affordable product with effective delivery and broad uptake to drive population-level impact. The world has the tools to stop the HIV epidemic. Now, we must act boldly to ensure everyone, everywhere, has access to them.

Brazil’s leadership shows what’s possible when political vision meets public health ambition. We need more leaders, in the Global North and in the Global South, who are ready to act with courage and urgency. #IAS2025
