two.2.4) Description of the procurement
The landscape for people living with HIV in England is dramatically different now to what it has been in the past. Enormous advances in pharmaceutical treatments have led to an increase in life expectancy for HIV positive people which for some is almost the same as that of the general population. Living with HIV with an undetectable load and a vastly reduced risk of transmission should mean a better quality of life for people living with HIV as well as emerging and changing needs, similar to those living with other long-term conditions.
Nonetheless, there remain some demographic inequities throughout LSL in relation to risk of HIV infection and access to support services that will be addressed by this service. On top of this, widespread changes in service user behaviour in light of the Covid pandemic have further highlighted the need for a strong care and support services offer that does not further exacerbate existing inequities.
