🇺🇸🤝🇺🇬 Results, not rhetoric: 99.1% of Ugandans who know their HIV status are on treatment, and 96.5% of them have suppressed the virus. That beats global targets. "Behind each of those percentages is a person who got tested, stayed on treatment, and is alive because of it." — Chargé d'Affaires Mikael Cleverley @MinofHealthUG
ALT Chargé d'Affaires Cleverley poses with about 20 U.S. and Ugandan officials in a Kampala courtyard. Behind them are banners from the U.S. Embassy, the Uganda Ministry of Health, UPHIA, and the Makerere University School of Public Health.
