2019年，只有14个欧洲和中亚国家提供了可报销的艾滋病毒暴露前预防（PrEP）。使用EMIS-2017数据，我们呈现了个别国家和欧盟（EU）自我报告的使用和表达的PrEP需求之间的差异。我们估计，欧盟有50万男男性行为者无法获得PrEP，尽管他们很可能会使用它。PrEP消除艾滋病毒的潜力目前尚未被国家医疗保健系统实现。
In 2019, only 14 European and Central Asian countries provided reimbursed HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). Using EMIS-2017 data, we present the difference between self-reported use and expressed need for PrEP in individual countries and the European Union (EU). We estimate that 500,000 men who have sex with men in the EU cannot access PrEP, although they would be very likely to use it. PrEP's potential to eliminate HIV is currently unrealised by national healthcare systems.
