In December 2020, the United Nations introduced their 95-95-95 plan. This plan aims for95 percent of people with HIV to know they are infected, access sustained antiretroviral care, and get viral suppression once on antiretroviral therapy by 2025. The plan was adopted by UN Members in June 2021. In the same year, approximately 85 percent of people knew they had the virus, 88 percent had treatment, and 92 percent were receiving viral suppression. Despite those successes, the world experienced the slowest decrease in infection rates since 2016 and an increase in thirty-eight countries.
