Botswana has made remarkable progress in reducing mother-to-child transmission of HIV to just 1.2%. Once facing a severe crisis, the country is now a leader in efforts to eliminate the virus in children and is conducting trials that could lead to a cure for young people.

Editor’s Note: This achievement is significant as it showcases Botswana's commitment to public health and serves as a model for other nations. The reduction in transmission rates not only improves the lives of children but also strengthens the overall health system in the country.
