HIV/AIDS remains one of the most significant global public health challenges, affecting millions of people across continents and socio-economic groups. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) attacks the immune system, specifically the CD4 cells, weakening the body’s ability to fight infections and diseases. If untreated, it progresses to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), the most advanced stage of the infection. Since its identification in the early 1980s, HIV/AIDS has spread worldwide, creating a complex interplay of medical, social, economic, and cultural concerns. Globally, HIV/AIDS has affected over 38 million people living with HIV, with a substantial number residing in low- and middle-income countries. Sub-Saharan Africa remains the most heavily affected region, accounting for nearly two-thirds of the global burden. The high prevalence in this region is influenced by factors such as poverty, lack of awareness, gender inequality, limited access to healthcare, and cultural practices. In recent decades, however, there has been a decline in new infections and AIDS-related deaths due to increased awareness, widespread testing, and the availability of antiretroviral therapy (ART). ART has transformed HIV from a fatal disease into a manageable chronic condition, significantly improving life expectancy. Despite these advancements, the global spread of HIV continues, particularly among vulnerable populations such as sex workers, intravenous drug users, men who have sex with men, and transgender individuals. Social stigma, discrimination, and lack of education often prevent these groups from accessing preventive services and treatment. Additionally, migration, urbanization, and conflict situations contribute to the continued transmission of the virus. Young people, especially adolescent girls and young women in certain regions, are also at high risk due to biological vulnerability and socio-economic factors like early marriage, gender-based violence, and limited access to education. The impact of HIV/AIDS extends beyond health, deeply affecting economies and societies. Families may face financial hardship due to loss of income and high medical costs. Children may become orphans, leading to increased vulnerability
