Abstract
HIV epidemiology in brief
Uzbekistan has a concentrated HIV epidemic, with
30,315 people living with HIV (PLHIV) officially
registered (95% of the estimated number), and 10,948
of them receiving antiretroviral therapy (coverage
34%-79.8% depending on how it was calculated) in
2014. Next to sexual transmission, injecting drug use
is the most common mode of HIV transmission. HIV
prevalence among people who inject drugs (PWID)
has been declining to 7.3%.
