In the fight against the HIV-AIDS epidemic, Cambodia is often taken as an example.

According to the WHO, the prevalence of the virus has decreased significantly, from 1.8% to 0.6% in twenty years. Today, more than 80% of those infected are on treatment. The country can thus hope to achieve the 90-90-90 objectives set by the United Nations program: so that by 2020, 90% of infected people are screened, 90% of HIV-positive people receive treatment and 90% of people treated have an undetectable viral load.

So, how do people living with HIV in Cambodia live? How do they take care of themselves on a daily basis? What is the road ahead for the HIV epidemic to stop spreading?
