More life-prolonging treatments for HIV

In total, lived in 2015 36.7 million people living with the HIV virus. There were about as many as the year before, but the UN is pleased that so many more people can be treated. 'People with HIV live longer. We have made enormous progress, especially in the area of ​​operations, 'said Michel Sidibe on behalf of the UN.
