Question 25273 — diseases

Summary

Mr. Jean François Mbaye questions the Minister of Solidarity and Health on the fight against HIV-AIDS in France and around the world. While the 2019 edition of World AIDS Day took place on December 1, 2019, this public health issue still suffers from a form of confidentiality which contributes to its detriment. Nevertheless, the results for 2019 are generally satisfactory. Indeed, for the first time since several years, France experienced a 7% decrease between 2017 and 2018 in the number of people who discovered their HIV status. Although this dynamic must be confirmed over time, it nevertheless constitutes notable progress in the fight against the epidemic. Likewise, and on a global scale, the success of the Sixth Replenishment Conference of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria was allowed us to send a strong signal to the international scene. With 14 billion dollars raised, including 1.3 billion euros promised by France (i.e. an increase of 20% of its previous three-year contribution), this event will have made it possible not only to illustrate French leadership in the fight against major pandemics, but also the opportunity for an approach based on multilateralism with regard to health issues. worldwide. These positive elements should not, however, make us forget that the epidemic is still raging across the world: 1.7 million people were infected with HIV in 2018, and 770,000 died from AIDS-related illnesses. Likewise, it is now virtually certain that the 90-90-90 objective set by UNAIDS for 2020 will not be achieved. He therefore wishes to question him on the way in which his ministry intends capitalize on these successes in order to achieve the sustainable development objective setting the end of the HIV epidemic by 2030, whether in France or around the world.
