HRSA Administrator Carole Johnson released a summary on January 16 of agency work in recent years on "improving access to health care services for underserved and rural communities, strengthening maternal health, expanding access to mental health and substance use disorder services, and growing the health care workforce...." Included are these HIV highlights:
- "Achieved a record-breaking rate of more than 90% of HRSA’s Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program clients reaching viral suppression—meaning their HIV is undetectable and untransmittable—through life-saving care, treatment, and medications for people with HIV and low incomes."
- "Took new action to engage individuals with HIV facing barriers to care and got over 40,000 people with HIV "into treatment or reengaged in treatment."
