40 years into the AIDS epidemic, Africa must embody the spirit of Ubuntu if we are to end AIDS

Forty years ago, on 5 June 1981, the Centers for Disease Control’s
Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report foreshadowed the global AIDS epidemic, which has since resulted in over 75 million HIV infections and 32 million deaths worldwide.
Since the 1980s, we have witnessed remarkable moments in science and activism, and, in the last year of AIDS’ 40th decade, a global pandemic so unexpected and fierce, it has made us rethink our preparedness for health emergencies past, present and future. A clear lesson from the colliding epidemics of HIV and COVID-19 is that if we do not put human rights and social justice at the centre of our response we are bound to fail.
