Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since President Obama released the nation's first comprehensive National HIV/AIDS Strategy in July 2010, a seismic shift in how the nation conducts HIV research, prevention, care, and treatment has occurred. Central to the Strategy is the unifying vision that "the United States will become a place where new HIV infections are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or socio-economic circumstance, will have unfettered access to high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and discrimination." Implementation of the Affordable Care Act, which has now extended health care coverage to millions of Americans, has a dynamic and evolving relationship with the Strategy that in coordination addresses the public health imperative to stop AIDS in the United States. In the nearly five years since passage of the Affordable Care Act and release of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy, the knowledge, tools and infrastructure at our disposal to prevent new infections and deliver care and services have changed dramatically (Figure 1). The Strategy's goals are to reduce new HIV infections, increase access to care and improve outcomes for people living with HIV, and reduce HIV-related health disparities. Last year, President Obama launched the HIV Care Continuum Initiative to further the goals of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy and galvanize the national response to HIV. The initiative directs Federal agencies to step up their efforts to improve outcomes by accelerating HIV diagnosis, linkage to and engagement in medical care, initiation of antiretroviral treatment, and sustainability of viral suppression. Federal agencies have responded to this call, and this report highlights some of the progress that has been made toward achieving HIV Care Continuum goals. These successes include introducing new population-specific awareness campaigns, developing innovative care delivery models, tackling stigma, discrimination, and other barriers to care, strengthening data collection and its use to improve outcomes and monitor resource deployment, prioritizing new health research, and building capacity to improve service-delivery, particularly at the state and local levels. Even with these advances, it remains clear that achieving our national goals requires further action: First, it requires enhancing our effectiveness in reaching those disproportionately impacted by the epidemic and improving their health outcomes. Data from Federal, state, and local sources suggest that less than a third of people with HIV achieve viral load suppression and accrue the full benefit of effective HIV medical care, which has the capacity not only to preserve health and extend life but also to reduce HIV transmission. In order to reduce the number of HIV infections in our country, we must focus and seize every opportunity to reduce geographic and demographic disparities in HIV care outcomes, especially among gay and bisexual men of all races and ethnicities, women and men of color, young people, transgender people, and persons living in southern states. Second, achieving our national goals requires sustained effort in every sector. Developing and maintaining effective partnerships among Federal, state, local, and tribal governments and private-sector partners is critical to accelerating our collective progress. This report highlights several successes in these areas including improved Federal collaboration, innovative demonstration projects that have ushered in new ways of working across agencies and sectors, listening sessions held in American communities, and meetings that have brought the voices of those working in the field to the White House, leading to exciting new public-private partnerships.

This book was released on 2017-10-05 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While much progress has been made on achieving the Millenium Development Goals over the last decade, the number and complexity of global health challenges has persisted. Growing forces for globalization have increased the interconnectedness of the world and our interdependency on other countries, economies, and cultures. Monumental growth in international travel and trade have brought improved access to goods and services for many, but also carry ongoing and ever-present threats of zoonotic spillover and infectious disease outbreaks that threaten all. Global Health and the Future Role of the United States identifies global health priorities in light of current and emerging world threats. This report assesses the current global health landscape and how challenges, actions, and players have evolved over the last decade across a wide range of issues, and provides recommendations on how to increase responsiveness, coordination, and efficiency â€" both within the U.S. government and across the global health field.

Download or read book HIV and AIDS written by Simon Uchenna Ortuanya and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2023-05-05 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed and timely analysis of key regulatory and legal issues arising in the context of HIV and AIDS. The ten chapters cover the core issues central to an understanding of law and public health as concerns AIDS. Whilst the book focuses on how Nigerian law applies to HIV and AIDS, the author draws heavily on materials from other jurisdictions. There are many parallels that exist between the application of law and governance considerations in the AIDS pandemic that resonate with other infectious diseases including Covid-19, therefore the book is widely relevant to public health law in communicable disease contexts. Topics covered: overview and origin of the HIV and AIDS epidemic; legal and institutional framework of the HIV and AIDS epidemic in Nigeria; human rights and the epidemic; decriminalisation of HIV and AIDS in Nigeria; HIV and AIDS and vulnerable groups; HIV and AIDS and patents; HIV and AIDS and sports; international organisations and programmes on HIV; judicial responses to HIV and AIDS; and global pandemics and control.
