In France, 173,000 people live with HIV, a virus that affects the immune system and prevents the body from defending itself against diseases.
It is further estimated that 24,000 people carry the virus without knowing it. The drop in testing observed during the Covid-19 pandemic (approximately 650,000 tests not performed in 2020, according to estimates from Santé publique France) raises fears of an epidemic rebound by 2022.
