Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone appears only through international and donor bodies that compile figures across many countries, and no figures for the country are read directly from a national publisher. PEPFAR's results for the country are broken down by province and count only the sites PEPFAR supports. The assessment of national sources, country by country, is set out on the Methods page.

Disbursements reported for the country. The OECD record and the United States self-reported record are drawn separately. The two records cover the same United States disbursements, but the OECD record is filed by calendar year and the self-reported record by United States fiscal year.

Modelled estimates. The shaded area is the published uncertainty interval around the number of people living with HIV, because a single estimate without the interval would overstate the precision of the model.

Every line is a percentage of all people living with HIV, so the three lines share a denominator and can be compared directly. Viral suppression in the figure is the share of all people living with HIV who are virally suppressed, and not the narrower third 95 target, which counts only people on treatment.

Data-quality flags on Sierra Leone

HIV tests performed with the result returned to the person, 2021 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 5,199 in 2020 to 46,705 in 2021, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 5,199 to 46,705 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2020 and 2021 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2020 and 2021.

Number newly diagnosed HIV-positive (PEPFAR MER HTS_TST_POS), 2021 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 372 in 2020 to 4,257 in 2021, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 372 to 4,257 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2020 and 2021 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2020 and 2021.

TB patients recorded as HIV-positive, 2021 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 58 in 2020 to 392 in 2021, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 58 to 392 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2020 and 2021 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2020 and 2021.

TB patients with an HIV test result recorded, 2021 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 388 in 2020 to 2,137 in 2021, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 388 to 2,137 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2020 and 2021 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2020 and 2021.

Number of PLHIV virally suppressed (VL<1000), 2023 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 1,653 in 2022 to 5,630 in 2023, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 1,653 to 5,630 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2022 and 2023 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2022 and 2023.

Number of PLHIV virally suppressed (VL<1000), 2024 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 5,630 in 2023 to 1,835 in 2024, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 5,630 to 1,835 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2023 and 2024 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2023 and 2024.

Number of PLHIV virally suppressed (VL<1000), 2025 (PEPFAR Panorama Spotlight). The value moved from 1,835 in 2024 to 21,596 in 2025, a change of more than threefold in a single year. The move from 1,835 to 21,596 is likely to reflect a change in which organisations funded by PEPFAR report the figures, or in the scope of the PEPFAR reporting, so the values for 2024 and 2025 are not comparable. Check the figures by reporting organisation before reading a trend across 2024 and 2025.
