This article analyzes the detection, prevention, and statistics of HIV infection among pregnant women in the region for the year 2024. Mother-to-child transmission of HIV can occur during pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding. To reduce the risk of virus transmission, prenatal screening, antiretroviral therapy, and special measures during delivery are crucial. In the region, 100% of pregnant women underwent HIV testing, with the number of newly detected cases remaining stable. Infection spread is more prominent in certain areas, with migration and sexual partners playing significant roles. The regional healthcare system conducts systematic monitoring of pregnant women and their families, implementing measures to reduce vertical HIV transmission. The article emphasizes the importance of strengthening prevention efforts to ensure a healthy generation.
