Politicians and medical experts from across the world are today meeting in London to develop plans on tackling HIV together to create an Aids-free future.
The AIDSfree Cities Global Forum, at The Conduit, Mayfair, is the climax of the campaign by the Evening Standard, The Independent and the Elton John AIDS Foundation.
It will focus on the UN’s “90-90-90” targets, which aim to inform at least 90 per cent of people with HIV of their status, get 90 per cent of them on treatment and 90 per cent virally suppressed.
Health Secretary Matt Hancock and International Development Secretary Penny Mordaunt and hosting the delegates, who include civic leaders from the six key cities focussed on during the AIDSfree appeal – Kiev, Delhi, Atlanta, Maputo, Nairobi and London.
The forum was sponsored by Johnson & Johnson.
