Why is this important?
Screening newly arrived migrants at point of entry is not enough
Some sub-populations of migrants are at-risk for HIV acquisition many years after arrival to Europe
Countries should develop and deliver targeted primary HIV prevention programmes to migrant populations at risk

Additional factors that will affect our work in the coming decade
• Political instability, austerity
• Health care system re-structuring
• Migration
• Aging cohort of PLHIV
• Changes in illicit drug markets and patterns of use

Conclusions
• Europe, as a region, is lagging behind in its response to the HIV epidemic and is not on track to reach the 2020 targets
• Effective interventions exist --frequent testing, immediate linkage to care and ART initiation, PrEP– but are not being applied at scale in many European countries.
• There is good news! Reduced incidence in MSM and heterosexuals in select countries, overall reduction in MTCT and IDU
