The dynamics of HIV in the MENA region
• The HIV epidemic has been on the rise since 2001.
• The rise in new infections has put MENA among the top two regions in the world with the fastest growing HIV epidemic.
• Approximately 500 000 people are living with HIV in the MENA region.
Increasing HIV prevalence, new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths in MENA region
• Between 2001 and 2011, the estimated number of people living with HIV in MENA increased from 210 000 to 300 000.
• Since 2001, the number of people newly infected with HIV in MENA has increased by more than 35%.
• Between 2005 and 2011, there was a significant increase (17%) in AIDS-related deaths in this region.
The dynamics of HIV in the MENA region
• AIDS-related mortality has also almost doubled in the past decade among both adults and children in the MENA region. This estimated increase among children reflects three problems:
– An accelerating epidemic in the region overall
– A rise in the total number of women living with HIV
– The generally inadequate services provided to prevent new infections among children.
Low coverage of HIV treatment and PMTCT services in MENA region
• Coverage of HIV treatment remains low across the Middle East and North Africa, at 15%. However, between 2009 and 2011, the number of people accessing HIV treatment in the region nearly doubled, from 8700 to 17000.
• In 2011, an estimated 7% of HIV-positive pregnant women in the region received services to prevent mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV. – The Middle East and North Africa is the only region
that has yet to see a reduction in the number of children newly infected with HIV.

-Zero discrimination
Towards reaching MDG Goal by 2015
UN General Assembly High Level Meeting June 2011
MENA Priorities
• Reducing sexual transmission;
• Increasing treatment coverage;
• Elimination of Mother to Child Transmission
Projected annual number of deaths averted by 2015 increasing ART coverage to 50% and 80%
Investing in health
• Reduces inequality and discrimination• Motivates and mobilizes people for a
sustainable development • Creates opportunities for experience exchange
and knowledge transfer• Provides a platform facilitating achieving other
MDGs
AIDS is not over…
• Despite significant progress made at global level, universal access and the MDG 6 remain unfinished business;
• The trend of the epidemics and also our response to it, shows that it takes decades to materialize vision of three zeros.
but the End of AIDS has begun!
• Political commitment;
• Community mobilization;
• Adequate funding;
• Evidence-informed programmes.
