“We have made tremendous progress over the past decade in combatting HIV/AIDS. We have been able to decrease the number of new HIV cases in the District, and when residents are diagnosed with HIV, they are getting care faster and they are starting – and staying on – treatments that we know are effective. Now, we need to continue getting the word out about what more can be done. We want all Washingtonians to know how to get tested and how to access the care and resources available to them.”
Muriel Bowser
Mayor of the District of Columbia
