<unk>  is a global pandemic. In 2013, an estimated 35 million people were living with the disease worldwide. An estimated 39 million people have died from AIDS or AIDS-related causes, including and approximate 1.5 million patients in 2013 alone. Over three-fourths of these deaths are confined to Sub-Saharan Africa. Owing to the development and success of ART over the past 25 years, the population of individuals with<unk>  infection is aging. Despite advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) and reduction of both the mortality and the morbidity of<unk>  infection with regular use of these agents, routine access to ART is not available in all countries. At the end of 2013, 11.7 million people were receiving ART in low- and middle-income countries representing 36% of people living with<unk>  in these countries. In 2015,the number of new<unk>  cases in New York City fell below 2,500  for the first time since the beginning of the AIDS epidemic in 1981.
