WHO Technical Report: Global Report on Early Warning Indicators of HIV Drug Resistance

With increasing global use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) to both treat and prevent HIV, and increasing global trends in HIV drug resistance ( HIVDR), efforts to improve HIV programme quality and prevent the emergence and transmission of drug-resistant HIV must be strengthened.

This global report is based on 59 countries that reported data from more than 12 000 clinics from cohorts of patients receiving ART between 2004 and 2014. The report includes the most recent clinic-level data reported to WHO in 2015 –2016 and reflects a lag due to the 12 month cohort reporting period.
