According to a report released by UNAIDS, in 2025, 1.2 million new people were infected with HIV worldwide, and the death toll exceeded 570,000, all the lowest levels in more than 30 years. However, cuts in international funding and reduced funding for prevention and community services may cause the outbreak to return. Total global development assistance fell by 23%, and funding for AIDS prevention and treatment fell to its lowest level in nearly 20 years, from US$8.8 billion in 2024 to US$7.3 billion in 2025. Without urgent action, the world could be infected with HIV by more than 3 million people each year by 2030.
