The United Nations has set a goal for near universal HIV diagnosis and treatment for all by 2030. Only 11 countries in the world can say this. Ninety-five percent of people living there who are HIV positive know their status. Ninety-five percent of HIV-positive people are taking medication that lowers the amount of the virus in their body. And 95% of people on HIV medication have a viral load so low, they're considered virally suppressed. In June, Cambodia became the first country in the Asia-Pacific region to reach this milestone, which the U.N. has set as a goal for every country to achieve by the year 2030. Many Asian countries, including wealthy ones like Japan and South Korea, have struggled to make these gains, says Dr. Annette Sohn, director of amfAR's TREAT Asia program, a network of clinics and researchers serving people with HIV.
