This is the "no spin" assessment on treatment access -- the successes, challenges, and what needs to change at the national and global levels.

Missing the Target #4 includes new data from 17 countries, including:

  • In-depth, original analyses from six countries not covered in previous ITPC reports: Cambodia , China , Malawi , Uganda , Zambia , and Zimbabwe
  • Updates from six countries profiled in past reports: Dominican Republic , India , Kenya , Nigeria , Russia , and South Africa
  • Short summaries from five new countries: Argentina , Belize , Cameroon , Malaysia , and Morocco

The report points out that AIDS treatment delivery represents the best hope to build broader health systems -- but that we are in a new phase of treatment scale up where critical issues beyond simple delivery of ARVs require urgent attention. Governments and global institutions must act on the recommendations in our report to accelerate treatment delivery and address critical challenges in scale up. Without improved efforts, the world will fall short of new G8 AIDS commitments to deliver lifesaving HIV treatment and prevention services.
