The Society for Family Health has reaffirmed its dedication to paving the way for the abolition of AIDS.
According to the NGO, the path will help to prepare for and respond to future pandemics, as well as promote progress towards the 2030 global goals.
In a statement released on Sunday in Abuja, Mr. Kene Eruchaluade, the Deputy Managing Director for Service Delivery, emphasized the commitment.
He claimed that the reinvigorated dedication came in response to the release of UNAIDS’ “The Path that Ends AIDS” annual State of the Epidemic Report.
Eruchalu claimed that the paper mapped out a course that may end AIDS and documented significant advancements, although difficulties still remained.
“We at SFH are reaffirming our promises and strategic priorities to continue putting women and other important demographics first and reaching them.”
According to Eruchalu, not enough women and girls were being contacted.
The survey, he continued, “showed that 4,000 teenage girls and young women contract HIV every week, the majority of whom live in Sub-Saharan Africa due to gaps in HIV prevention efforts and gender inequities.
The path to eradicating AIDS, according to the new research, is straightforward but calls for political and financial commitment.
“In 2022, there were an estimated 39 million HIV-positive individuals worldwide, but with the right political will, AIDS could be eradicated as a public health threat by 2030.”
