WHAT IS GOING ON IN HIV AND AIDS IN 2013 AND BEYOND

Prof Alan Whiteside

RATN MEETING

JOHANNESBURG

March 2013

Outline

1. Context: Epidemiology • Where the epidemic is

• Hyper-epidemic countries

2. What does this mean • For development (and MDGs)

• Economic growth

• Donors

3. Responding• Prevention (first prize)

• Treatment

• Impact mitigation

4. Conclusion • Understand your epidemic

• Prioritize

2009 Global HIV Infection33.3 million people [31.4–35.3 million] living with HIV

HIV prevalence & no of HIV+ people countries with >1% of SSA HIV+ population.

HIV prevalence and number of HIV positive people in countries with 1% or more of the total Sub-Saharan African HIV positive population. Data from: UNAIDS (http://www.unaids.org/en/dataanalysis/epidemiology/

Country Number of adults living with HIV

HIV/AIDS Prevalence rate

Swaziland 190,000 26.1%

South Africa 5,700,000 18.1%

Botswana 300,000 23.9%

Comparison of Epidemics

• Scale of the epidemic: Southern Africa unbelievably high over 15%,

• Numbers• Mode of transmission: SA - unprotected

heterosexual intercourse • Ability to respond: a function of wealth and political

commitment

What does this mean (more)

• For development (and MDGs)

• Economic growth

• Donors

Demographics: Population Growth Rate

Beyond the MDGs

Responding

• Prevention (first prize)

• Treatment

• Impact mitigation

Impact

Logic for Prevention

1. Growing case load• For every two people put on treatment there are five new infections

2. Stretched health systems• Lack of buy-in, time for adequate training, intervention that ‘speak to’ individuals

3. Strained human resources • 13 providers per 100,000 people in SSA

• 5,100 new doctors per year in Africa (compared to 173,800 in Europe)

4. Money

AIDS Treatment without prevention is mopping the floor while the tap is running

What Works in Prevention?

Currently: PMTCT Male circumcision Male and female condoms

Potentially: Microbicides PREP Vaccine Cure Behaviour change that works

What Should Work in Prevention

Behaviour change Fewer partners Less concurrency Later sexual debut

What Needs to be Addressed…• Poverty/ economic inequalities

• Gender inequalities

• Leadership and policy

• Etc.

Total annual resources available for AIDS in low and middle income countries

Domestic contribution

Donor funding for Africa flattened, domestic funding increasing (UNAIDS)

African Treatment Programmes aid dependent!

UNAIDS: AIDS Dependency Crisis Sourcing African Solutions

AIDS Dependency Crisis: Sourcing African Solutions (UNAIDS)

1. Strengthen African ownership, exploit & diversifysources• Negotiate long-term predicable money from donors• Grow African investments• Compact for shared differentiated responsibilities• Explore sustainable innovative financing

2. Quality Assured Medicines sooner to those in need

3. Establish centres of excellent for local production of medicines in Africa

Conclusion

• The HIV epidemic is no longer on the top of the agenda – it is being overtaken and mainstreamed

• Understand your epidemic

• Prioritize

• Be realistic
