Abstrak Penyakit AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) merupakan salah satu penyakit yang mengakibatkan kematian di dunia. Menurut UNAIDS (United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS) dan WHO (World Health Organization), AIDS telah mengakibatkan kematian lebih dari 25 juta jiwa sejak pertama kali diakui tahun 1981, (Kent.et.al, 2010). Saat ini penularan HIV/AIDS di Kabupaten Garut telah mengalami pergeseran yang sebelumnya penyakit ini ditularkan melalui pengguna narkoba suntik sekarang berubah penularan melalui pasangan suami istri khususnya pada istri. Mengingat untuk HIV dan AIDS merupakan fenomena “gunung es” bahwa kasus yang terdata hanya cerminan sedikit kasus yang sebenarnya ada di masyarakat. Secara teori adanya 1 kasus HIV dan AIDS yang ada terdeteksi, kasus yang sebenarnya ada di masyarakat adalah 100 kasus. Metode yang digunakan dalam Kegiatan ini tujuannya adalah, memberikan informasi mengapa HIV-AIDS perlu mendapat perhatian khusus, serta bagaimana gejala-gejalanya karena HIV-AIDS adalah penyakit yang sampai saat ini belum ada obat untuk menanggulanginya dan hanya dapat dilakukan pencegahan.Tahapan selanjutnya Pelaksanaan Pre Test, Kegiatan ini dilakukan untuk menggali sejauh mana pengetahuan dan pemahaman para siswa mengenai penyakit HIV/AIDS dengan memberikan pertanyaan secara tertulis yang berhubungan dengan penyakit HIV/AIDS (soal pertanyaan pre test terlampir). Hasil yang didapat pada pre test menunjukan secara keseluruhan pertanyaan yang diajukan, para siswa hanya bisa menjawab dan memahami tentang materi penyakit HIV/AIDS sebesar 24%. Post test dilakukan setelah penyuluhan berakhir untuk mengetahui tingkat pengetahuan dan pemahaman siswa terhadap materi yang sudah diberikan. Adapun hasil post test menunjukan adanya peningkatan pemahaman tentang penyakit HIV/AIDS yang dibandingkan dengan hasil pre test yaitu sebesar 80% dari soal yang ditanyakan kepada para siswa.Penguatan keterampilan individu (Personnal Skill), dalam mewujudkan kesehatan secara keseluruhan, ketrampilan individu mutlak diperlukan, dalam hal ini siswa Madrasah Tsanawiah Negeri 1 Kabupaten Garut, untuk belajar melalui kehidupan dalam menyiapkan diri mereka untuk semua tingkatannya dan untuk menangani penyakit dan kecelakaan sangatlah penting.

The article discusses the activities of two United Nations bodies - the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS(UNAIDS) - which are engaged in developing measures to counteract the global HIV/AIDS epidemic. An important component of this activity is gathering information and producing strategic documents. Their almost unclassifiable diversity, however, can be managed by a rigorous algorithm that incorporates data collection, formulation of principles and development of strategies. An analysis of materials such as “reports,” “fact sheets,” and “global strategies” reveals how the main global mechanisms work as they coordinate the efforts of national governments and attempt to control the epidemic globally; analysis also indicates what kind of language is used and what goals are set. In 2020 the ambitious goal of eliminating the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2030 that is declared in WHO and UNAIDS documents unexpectedly became problematic once more due to the spread of another global epidemic - COVID-19. The publication of new materials on how to continue the fight against HIV/AIDS in the context of the coronavirus pandemic suggests that WHO and UNAIDS are already losing faith in the effectiveness of the measures so far developed in order to eliminate HIV/AIDS. The ongoing crisis caused by the COVID pandemic has also revealed a new trend by converting these UN bodies mostly into tools for producing global information while making other aspects of their activities less visible.

The unfortunate distinction of having the world's fastest-growing HIV/AIDS epidemic still belongs to eastern Europe and Central Asia, according to the report, AIDS epidemic update 2002, released this week (1). In southern Africa, the HIV/AIDS epidemic has greatly decreased the capacity of farm communities to survive famine (2). The update on the global HIV/AIDS epidemic was issued by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) and the World Health Organization, in advance of World AIDS day on 1 December.

Commitment to ambitious and time-bound targets for HIV interventions has been part of the response from the beginning of the HIV epidemic. The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) HIV primary prevention workA is built on five pillars that include offering pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) to population groups at substantial risk of HIV infection. After a slow start, countries are now setting coverage targets for PrEP, but the weakness of epidemiological, demographic and behavioural data at subnational level in many countries where there is a high burden of new HIV infections, makes it difficult to define the locations and populations where to offer PrEP. This article reviews the history and challenges of PrEP target setting and suggests some possible ways of strengthening the process. Reviewing program data will identify gaps in reaching key and other priority populations for whom coverage targets were set and help to refine the offer of PrEP.
