answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/11/2016 answer text <p>Our HIV and AIDS work has focused on multilateral instruments (Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB and Malaria, UNITAID and UNAIDS), given their greater reach and scale. The Global Fund helps countries avoid stock outs of drugs and supports patients to sustain treatment, which are two key factors in preventing drug resistance.</p><p>UNITAID has also played a key role in tackling HIV drug resistance by building the market for second-line antiretroviral treatment. Over 100,000 patients a year now have access to UNITAID-supported second-line HIV medicines.</p><p>We and our partners make use of reports such as the Global Report on Early Warning Indicators of HIV Drug Resistance published by WHO earlier this year.</p> answering member constituency Stockton South answering member printed James Wharton question first answered 23/11/2016 17:20:52 answering member 4123 label Biography information for Lord Wharton of Yarm

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 31/10/2016 answer text <p>The UK stands as one of the world’s largest funders of essential health commodities for developing countries, largely due to our investment in multilateral organisations such as the Global Fund and Gavi, the Vaccines Alliance.</p><p>We work hard to ensure that our bilateral and multilateral partners secure maximum value for money in their purchasing of health commodities through best commercial practice, including international competitive tendering, and partnerships with the private sector. DFID’s work in this area has unlocked huge value gains across a number of key health commodity markets. For example, the cost of a year’s supply of antiretrovirals for HIV/AIDS has fallen by 50% since 2010. By the end of 2015, 17 million patients across the globe were on antiretroviral treatment, compared with 0.7 million in 2000.</p> answering member constituency Stockton South answering member printed James Wharton grouped question UIN 50608 question first answered 31/10/2016 16:35:21 answering member 4123 label Biography information for Lord Wharton of Yarm
