Condom vending machines at key public locations mean people can obtain condoms quickly, privately, and whenever they need them. This simple innovation can increase consistent condom use, reduce new HIV infections, and promote responsible s*xual health practices.

Kudos to the Ghana AIDS Commission for this forward-thinking initiative, which brings HIV prevention closer to the people and strengthens Ghana's commitment to ending HIV.

HIV transmission from men to women remains high, but together we can change the story through prevention, regular testing, and open conversations.

These figures reflect the reality on the ground, but only among those who have taken the step to know their status by visiting a health facility or using an HIV self-test kit. Many others may be living with HIV without knowing it.

Get tested. Know your status.

45 people a day. Not a typo. Not "back in the day." TODAY. In Ghana. While you're out here trusting vibes over condoms.
68.5% of new infections are women — because apparently "he looked clean" is still
someone's testing method. 🙄

Newsflash: HIV doesn't check your relationship status, your Instagram bio, or how "in love" you are. It checks for skin-to-skin contact and bad decisions.
So here's your options, and there's really only three:
🚫 Abstain — wild concept, still works
✅ Condom. Every. Single. Time. Not "most times." EVERY time.
💯 One partner. Actually faithful. Not "faithful when I feel like it.

Your body isn't a group chat. Stop adding random members!

According to our data, 45 people contract HIV every day in Ghana, with women accounting for 68.5% of new infections and men 31.5%. This shows that HIV infections are disproportionately affecting women in Ghana.

Know your status. Get tested regularly, use condoms consistently, and never share sharp objects like blades or needles.

The Ghana AIDS Commission (GAC) has disclosed that Bono Region recorded 1,145 new HIV infections between January and May 2026.

Concerns over shortages of antiretroviral drugs and testing supplies highlight the need for continued access to essential HIV services, including treatment and oral HIV self-test kits.
Any disruption to these services can delay diagnosis, interrupt treatment, and affect efforts to prevent new HIV infections.

If you need information, support, or an HIV self-test kit, you can visit the Savana Signatures office to access one.

The SHE+ Helpline is also available to provide confidential, non-judgmental support on HIV and other health realted issues.

His concerns come as the Global Fund Country Coordinating Mechanism warns that Ghana's stock of oral and blood-based HIV testing kits could be exhausted by the end of July this year.
