Tags: Today is National Women & Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day!
In the United States, about 23% of people living with HIV are women and, in 2021, women made up 19 percent of new diagnoses, according to CDC data. The highest number of new diagnoses were among women ages 25 to 44. Advances in testing, treatment, and prevention have resulted in progress towards the nation’s goal to end the HIV epidemic by 2030.
The theme for NWGHAAD 2024 is: Prevention and Testing at Every Age. Care and Treatment at Every Stage.
