Among 134 countries reviewed, 42 have comprehensive anti-discrimination policies covering a broad range of populations, while 24 lack any such policies. The remaining countries have adopted partial measures. Nations with comprehensive anti-discrimination policies, document significantly higher rates of PrEP initiation compared to those without such protections. Key studies show a strong link between supportive policies (which can enable PrEP eligibility, HIV self-testing, and lower age of consent for treatment, for example) and higher PrEP initiations.
