Global, regional, and national burden and trends of HIV/AIDS among women of childbearing age from 1990 to 2021: results from Global Burden of Disease 2021
From 1990 to 2021, substantial rise in incident cases, prevalent cases, mortality, and DALYs has established HIV/AIDS among WCBA as a critical global public health burden. This burden exhibits marked disparities across geographic regions, countries, and age groups. In high-burden areas, particularly Sub-Saharan Africa, public health practitioners must strengthen international cooperation and prioritize expanding HIV testing and antiretroviral therapy access, women's empowerment, and removing socio-cultural barriers.
