3 Global Burden of HIV Disease Number of people living with HIV in 2013 > Total 35,000,000 > Adults 31,800,000 > Pregnant women 1,450,000 (4%) > Children 3,200,000 (9%) People newly infected with HIV in 2013 > Total 2,100,000 > Adults 1,900,000 > Children 240,000 (12.6%) 3

Istline for children >3 years Age group 2010 recommendations 3-19 years NVP or EFV plus 2 NRTIs in preferential order: AZT + 3TC ABC + 3TC d4t + 3TC TDF + FTC + EFV to be used as preferred regimen if HIV/HBV coinfectionand >12 years and > 35 Kg Age group 2013 recommendations 3-10 years (Including> 10 yrs who weighing <35kg) years (weighing 35 kg) (align with adults) NNRTI 2NRTIs NNRTI 2NRTIs EFV is preferred NVP as alternative In preferential order: ABC + 3TC AZT or TDF + 3TC or FTC EFV is preferred NVP as alternative In preferential order: TDF + FTC or 3TC ABC+ 3TC AZT +3TC Source: Shaffer, WHO 2013

23 3. Harmonisingguidelines and procurement of paediatricarvs: UNICEF/WHO/IATT optimal formulary list products 10 products 23

24 4. Aligning to reality on the ground: Current uptake 2013 ARV guidelines increases Adult initiation <CD 500 Paediatic ART <5 years PMTCT Option B+ ART in SD couples ART in liver disease 52% 39% 45% 48% 40% * * or 75% of 22 EMTCT Global Plan countries 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Percentage of 58 WHO HIV Focal Countries with confirmed adoption of select WHO 2013 ARV recommendations, June 2014 Source: WHO HIV Country Intelligence Database, June

25 4. Aligning to ralitieson the ground: Adoption of option B/B+ in the 22 priority countries 25

26 5. Supply Management Prices continue to decrease, but stockouts remain of concern Median prices of WHO-preferred first-line regimens per person per year, in US dollars, in low-and middle-income countries, Source: Weiler, IAC, Melbourne

27 Conclusion Changing programming landscape Population size Evolution of WHO guidance Decentralisationof services to reach more people UNICEF/ZIMA /Pirozzi Thank you For more efficient and effective programmes and use of resources: Enhance supply management support in countries Increase investment in and regular reporting of country data on need and consumption 27
