The Effectiveness of the UNAIDS Strategy«90-90-90»in Populations with Different Population Growth
Introduction. Available data indicate that the effectiveness of the strategy of "90-90-90" varies considerably between countries. For example, Australia with figures 90-90-79 (2016) has not achieved the negative trend of the incidence and prevalence, while Niger 35-90-57 performance demons...
