The Bandar Lampung City Health Service (Diskes) recorded 465 new HIV cases discovered from January to October 2025. This number came from a total of 33,985 at-risk populations who had undergone HIV testing at various health service facilities.
Head of the Disease Prevention and Control Division of the Bandar Lampung City Health Office, Liskha Sari Sandiaty, explained that of the total findings, 360 cases came from the SPM (Minimum Service Standards) group and 150 cases from non-SPM.
“For the SPM group, there are 17 HIV-positive pregnant women, 47 HIV-positive TB patients, 38 STI patients, 5 female sex workers (FSW), 242 men who have sex with men (MSM), 10 transgender women, and 1 injecting drug user (PWID),” said Liskha, Thursday (13/11).
Meanwhile, cases from the non-SPM group included 40 PS customers, 24 at-risk couples, 7 PLHIV couples, 2 children of PLHIV mothers, 1 bride and groom, and 30 from the general population.
Furthermore, Liskha explained that his party continues to strive to strengthen HIV/AIDS services in all health facilities. The main focus is monitoring and evaluating health facilities that are not yet optimal in treatment management and recording SIHA 2.1 reporting so that it can be done in real time and on time.
Apart from that, Diskes also ensures the continuous availability of anti-retroviral (ARV) and non-ARV logistics, tracks PLHIV who have dropped out of treatment (LFU), and strengthens prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PIMS HIV/AIDS) through cross-sector collaboration.
“Synchronization of programs between OPDs is important so that every activity has the same direction, namely preventing and suppressing HIV/AIDS cases in Bandar Lampung,” said Liskha.
Diskes will also validate HIV screening achievement data, evaluate treatment, and expand the HIV/AIDS service network based on government, private and community health facilities at the district/city level.
With this integrated step, the Bandar Lampung City Government confirms its commitment to strengthening early detection, treatment and prevention of HIV/AIDS in order to reduce the rate of transmission in urban areas with high-risk populations.
