A new animated video provides a brief overview of HIV in the United States and illustrates how improvements along each step of the treatment cascade can help us achieve an AIDS-free generation. We are grateful to GileadExit Disclaimer for sharing the video, which debuted last fall at the 2012 U.S. Conference on AIDS, the nation’s largest domestic HIV/AIDS conference.

The two-minute video calls viewers to action, focusing on a number of key steps that are consistent with the National HIV/AIDS Strategy.Read more about the HIV treatment cascade in this prior post or watch a conversation with Dr. Ron Valdiserri and Dr. Kevin Fenton about CDC’s demographic analysis of the HIV treatment cascade in the United States.
