Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 61348, member: 636"] Nigeria achieved a major victory against HIV through dramatically reduced drug costs. The National Agency for the Control of AIDS announced lenacapavir prices fell from $28,000 to $40 per person annually. Officials revealed this breakthrough during the Clinton Global Initiative meeting at the United Nations General Assembly in New York. The twice-yearly injection prevents new HIV infections with complete effectiveness. NACA Director-General Dr Temitope Ilori called the agreement transformational for millions at risk. The medication becomes available across Nigeria and more than 100 developing nations under the new pricing structure. Ilori emphasized that innovation must work alongside equity in healthcare access. This price reduction transforms an expensive treatment into an affordable prevention tool for vulnerable populations worldwide. [/QUOTE]
