最新全国艾滋病疫情估计显示，2024年新感染人数为15,290人，艾滋病相关死亡人数为12,614人，这严峻地提醒人们，加纳抗击艾滋病毒和艾滋病的战斗远未结束。\n\n目前有334,721人携带艾滋病毒，这些数字暴露出一个持续存在的公共卫生挑战，需要以焕然一新的紧迫感加以应对，特别是女性和年轻女性继续承担着该疾病带来的不成比例的沉重负担。\n\n尤其令人担忧的是，年轻人尤其是15至24岁女性的脆弱性正在不断上升。\n\n数据不仅显示该群体感染人数的增加，还表明性别差距进一步扩大，年轻女性占该年龄段新感染人数的80%以上。\n\n这不仅仅是一个统计数字，更是根深蒂固的结构性、社会和经济不平等必须得到直接解决的信号。\n\n尽管加纳在某些领域取得了值得称赞的进展，例如实现了近乎全覆盖的预防母婴传播，但该国仍未达到全球的95-95-95目标。\n\n只有68%的艾滋病毒感染者了解自己的病情，且接受治疗的成年人不到一半，这一巨大差距不容忽视。

原文原文 / Original Text

The latest national HIV estimates, which put new infections at 15,290 and AIDS-related deaths at 12,614 in 2024, present a sobering reminder that the fight against HIV and AIDS in Ghana is far from over.

With 334,721 people currently living with HIV, the figures expose a persistent public health challenge that demands renewed urgency, particularly as women and young females continue to bear a disproportionate burden of the disease.

Of particular concern is the growing vulnerability of young people, especially females aged between 15 and 24 years.

The data shows not only a rise in infections within this group but also a widening gender disparity, with young females accounting for over 80 per cent of new infections in that age bracket.

This is not merely a statistic, it is a signal of deep-rooted structural, social and economic inequalities that must be addressed head-on.

While Ghana has made commendable progress in certain areas, such as the near-universal coverage of prevention of mother-to-child transmission, the country remains below the global 95-95-95 targets.

The fact that only 68 per cent of people living with HIV know their status, and less than half of adults are on treatment, is a gap that cannot be ignored.
