Details

• Corporate Authors:
  Center for Global Health (U.S.). Division of Global HIV & TB. ; U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief.
• Description:
  Since 2003, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Central American Regional Office has collaborated with Ministries of Health and the Council of Health Ministers of Central America to respond to the HIV epidemic in the region. CDC supports countries to achieve the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 95-95-95 targets and the World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) End TB Strategy targets in the context of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Agenda. The UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets are by 2030: 95 percent of people living with HIV (PLHIV) will know their HIV status; 95 percent of people who know their status will be on treatment; and 95 percent of people on treatment will have suppressed viral loads.
  
  In coordination with the Chief of Mission, CDC prioritizes specific interventions that have a direct impact on the quality of services for PLHIV and key populations at elevated risk of infection. CDC supports the scale-up of evidence-based programs to bridge gaps around HIV prevention, active case finding, early ART initiation, optimized treatment services, and achievement of viral load suppression with a targeted approach to strengthen systems essential to HIV epidemic control.
