Key Achievements

• Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision (VMMC):
  PEPFAR supported 22.8 million voluntary medical male circumcisions in Eastern and Southern Africa to reduce the risk of HIV infection among men and boys.

• Decline in New HIV Diagnoses Among Adolescent Girls and Young Women:
  In nearly all DREAMS regions (10 high-burden African countries), new HIV diagnoses among adolescent girls and young women have declined by 25% or more, thanks to PEPFAR's DREAMS public-private partnership.

• HIV-Free Births:
  Over 2.6 million babies were born HIV-free to mothers living with HIV, due to PEPFAR's efforts in preventing mother-to-child transmission.

• HIV Testing Services:
  PEPFAR provided 79.6 million people with access to HIV testing services during the fiscal year 2019.

• Antiretroviral Treatment (ART):
  Nearly 15.7 million people, including men, women, and children, were on lifesaving antiretroviral treatment supported by PEPFAR.
  Specifically, 700,000 children were included in this treatment coverage.

• Care and Support for Vulnerable Populations:
  More than 6.3 million orphans, vulnerable children, and their caregivers received critical care and support to address the physical, emotional, and economic consequences of HIV/AIDS.

• Health Workforce Development:
  PEPFAR trained over 280,000 new health workers, including through pre-service training, to improve the delivery of HIV and other health services.
