Yes Zimbabwe, itโs happening! We are excited to announce that Zimbabwe was selected as one of the ten countries globally to roll out lenacapavir, a breakthrough development in the fight against HIV.

But this is more than medicineโit advances us on a pathway to a safer, stronger, and healthier future!
๐ตBy focusing on pregnant and breastfeeding women, weโre protecting the next generation.
๐ตBy strengthening healthcare systems, weโre empowering Zimbabwe to lead its own fight against HIV.
๐ตAnd by making lenacapavir more affordable and accessible, no one is left behind.
This is American leadership at its best: driving innovation, and building a world where children, mothers, and communities can thrive.
Together, weโre not just fighting HIVโweโre winning.
