This report is the latest in a series published jointly by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the WHO Regional Office for Europe that has been summarizing data on HIV and AIDS in the WHO European Region and in the European Union and European Economic Area (EU/EEA) since 2007.
In 2020, using data from countries able to provide at least two consecutive stages of the continuum, the overall performance of the European and Central Asian region against the global 90-90-90 targets is 82% of all PLHIV with HIV diagnosed, 67% of those diagnosed with HIV on treatment and 90% of those on treatment virally suppressed. More progress is needed to meet the substantive target of 73% of all PLHIV being virally suppressed, with performance for the overall region at 50% (based on the countries that submitted data for all four stages of the continuum).
