As of 2023, the number of new HIV infections in France was recorded at approximately 5.87 thousand persons. Over the forecast period from 2024 to 2028, the data suggests a subtle yet steady decline in new infections. In 2024 and 2025, the figure remains stable at 5.87 thousand, before decreasing slightly to 5.86 thousand in 2026, 5.85 thousand in 2027, and 5.84 thousand by 2028. This trend depicts a gradual reduction, indicating a small compound annual growth rate (CAGR) implying less than a 1% decrease annually.
Future trends to watch for:
- Advancements in HIV prevention methods, such as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), could further influence these projections.
- Public health initiatives aimed at education and awareness may accelerate the downward trend in infection rates.
- Potential impacts of global health policy changes or new treatment options may also affect future infection rates.
