Informing the agenda: A dialogue with mothers and caregivers on the priorities for children and adolescents with perinatal HIV exposure
Over the past several decades, significant progress in HIV prevention and treatment has led to a marked reduction in HIV vertical transmission. As of 2024, an estimated 16 million children under the age of 15 globally have been perinatally exposed to HIV but remain HIV-free. An increasing and consistent body of evidence shows that despite starting life without HIV, these children face elevated risks of adverse birth outcomes, infectious morbidity, mortality, impaired growth and suboptimal neurodevelopment.
