Why is this important? HIV/AIDS continues to pose a serious threat to hundreds of thousands of people in Ukraine. The full-scale war has significantly complicated efforts to combat the epidemic. According to the Public Health Center, more than 133,000 Ukrainians are living with HIV, and approximately 90,000 remain unaware of their status. From January to October of 2025, there were 6,708 new HIV infections, 2,278 AIDS cases, and 759 AIDS-related deaths. This is why the stamp presentation, held ahead of World AIDS Day, is a symbolic event uniting the state, civil society, and international organizations around the common goal of supporting people living with HIV.
