In 2019, the estimated people living in HIV (PLHIV) in Malaysia is around 87,000.
However, through our national surveillance system, close to 78,000 PLHIV were
notified out of which, 0.4% were children below 15 years of age. There were 3,564
people newly infected with HIV notified in 2019 (Figure 1), slightly more than half
(56%) of estimated new HIV infection in 2019. Estimated HIV incidence rate per 1000
uninfected population is showing an increasing trend in the past two years (Figure
2). The overall epidemic is concentrated in urbanized states of Selangor, Kuala
Lumpur, and Johor that contribute more than 50% of new HIV cases in Malaysia
(Figure 3).
Treatment Cascade
Figure 4: HIV Testing and Treatment Cascade, Malaysia, 2019
Countries are left with just 1 year to reaching the fast track target of 90-90-90 by
2020. In that regard, Malaysia has achieved 89%-56%-85% which means in 2019,
89% of PLHIV in Malaysia know their status, 56% of them were receiving treatment,
and 85% of them were virally suppressed (figure 4). Linkage to care still represents
the single greatest challenge for Malaysia to reach 90-90-90 target as the highest
gap to reaching 90-90-90 target stood at number of PLHIV needed to access
treatment.

Figure 5: New HIV Infection, Malaysia, 1986-2019
Malaysia has done a tremendous
work in reducing the annual number
of new HIV infections since its peak
in 2002 with our Harm Reduction
Program. However, since 2010, the
trend has reached a flat line. There
has been only a modest 0.9% decline
in the annual number of new HIV
infections in Malaysia since 2010
(Figure 5).
Several states showed strong
decline in new infections between

highest increment of AIDS-related
deaths of more than 100% during
the same period. Since the
beginning of the epidemic, the
reported cases were predominantly
male (Figure 8).

proportion of sexual transmission has increase to more than 90% in 2019.

Given that sharing injection paraphernalia is the main mode of transmission in
Malaysia since the beginning of the epidemic, Harm Reduction Program that consist
of Needle and Syringe Exchange Program (NSEP) and Opioid Substitution Therapy
(OST) remained the mainstay of prevention programs to PWID in Malaysia. The OST
Program coverage offered at selected government and private health facilities since
2006, has shown an increased to more than 70% since 2017 (Figure 12). While the
NSEP program, implemented through smart partnership with NGO under MAC at
their outreach points throughout the country has reported a significant reduction in
program coverage of less than 50% since 2017. This is in line with the National

HIV and syphilis test coverage for antenatal mothers to prevent vertical transmission
in Malaysia has persistently reached beyond 95% for more than a decade, with
seroconversion rate for both HIV and syphilis remained below 0.1% (Figure 16). This
wide screening coverage has been persistent throughout the country since the
Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) program was implemented in
1998. The PMTCT Program in Malaysia is based strongly around early detection and
prompt treatment of HIV and syphilis for mother and baby, safer modes of delivery
and safer infant feeding practices.

An estimated 99.3% of HIV-positive pregnant women were receiving ARV in 2019
resulted in 1.64% transmission rate of mother-to-child transmission (Figure 17). This
vertical transmission rate for HIV has reached the WHO elimination target (less than
2.00%) in both programmatic and estimated (Spectrum) data since 2016 (Figure 18).
Similarly, reported congenital syphilis have been less than 10 cases per 100,000 LB
persistently since 2010, which is far below the elimination indicator of less than 50
cases per 100,000 LB (Figure 19).
