Testing Model Resources
THE CHALLENGE
- The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that 33 Million people are living with HIV/AIDS
- The vast majority of positive people worldwide are unaware of their HIV status.
- 9.7 Million people are in urgent need of lifesaving antiretroviral treatment (ART) today.
- Less than 3 Million people have access to ART today, leaving more than 6 Million to become sick and die.
- Traditional VCT models are inadequate and inefficient to provide the testing volume to reach global demand.
