Abstract
Since the beginning of the HIV epidemic, approximately 78 million people have been infected with HIV globally, and 35 million have died from AIDS-related illnesses (Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS [UNAIDS] 2016). At the time of writing, it is estimated that 36.7 million people are living with HIV, with the majority (~70%) of those people living in sub-Saharan Africa (World Health Organization [WHO] 2016a). Approximately two million people have been infected with HIV each year since 2010, with no significant declines in the rate of new infections, globally, from that time to the present date (UNAIDS 2016).
