A Review of the Efforts Made by Several African Countries to Reach UNAIDS Targets and the Effects of the Covid-19 on People Living with HIV
Journal Title: Journal of Quality in Health Care & Economics (JQHE) - Year 2022, Vol 5, Issue 6
Abstract
Even though COVID-19 has spread faster than any other health problem in the last 100 years, it is not the first pandemic that the modern world has had to deal with. As countries try to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, which is getting worse and worse, they are already using what they have learnt and invested in while dealing with HIV by putting systems to use, and figuring out what dynamic changes are needed to build a new way forward towards health systems that are optimally effective, accountable, inclusive, fair, and well-resourced, with services that are accessible, integrated, tailored, and people-centred. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a lot of terrible effects on people, communities, and societies all over the world. People with long-term health problems may be more likely to get COVID-19 or have complications from it. People who get the virus can get sick or die, and the physical distance needed to flatten the curve of new cases is hurting the economy. This hurts the economy in ways that affect mental health and other health problems, which particularly hurts marginalised communities. COVID-19 is affecting people with HIV (PWH) in unique ways, and it will continue to influence HIV research and treatment after the COVID-19 crisis is over. This is because HIV affects marginalised communities more than other groups.
