Sir Elton John says ending Aids by 2030 'possible and doable'

Sir Elton John has said ending Aids by 2030 is “possible and doable”. The star's Aids charity has launched a new initiative to tackle the growing rates of HIV infections in vulnerable communities.

The Elton John Aids Foundation on Thursday (June 1) launched a three-year fund, worth 125 million dollars (£101 million). It will support access to HIV prevention and treatment services for more than one million people.

This includes providing access to tests, antiretroviral therapies, and pre-exposure prophylaxis treatment for HIV (PrEP).
