Imaze guhitana ubuzima bw’abantu barenga miliyoni 40 ku isi yose, mu mpera za 2022, raporo zerekana ko abantu miliyoni 39 bari bakibana na virusi itera SIDA, Afurika y’Epfo ikaba ifite umubare munini ku Isi. Bada Pharasi, umuyobozi mukuru w’ishyirahamwe ry’imiti mvaruganda muri Afurika yepfo (IPASA), yanditse ko mu gihe nta muti uhari, hari ibyiringiro kuri ubu buryo bwo gukingirwa.
Muri Afurika y’Epfo, abantu bagera kuri miliyoni 7.8, ni ukuvuga 13.2% by’abaturage, babanaga na virusi itera SIDA muri 2022. Amakuru meza ni uko umubare w’abandura bashya ugenda ugabanuka, aho abagera kuri 164.000 banduye virusi itera SIDA muri 2022.
Kimwe cya gatatu cy’abanduye bashya muri 19992. Iri gabanuka rishobora kuba ryaratewe n’uburezi buvuguruye, impinduka z’abaturage, ndetse no kubona imiti ikingira, Umubare munini w’abantu banduye virusi itera sida bishingikiriza ku buvuzi bw’iyi virusi kandi ntibayandure. Ku bwibyo rero, kongera ubwishingizi bwo kuvura ntabwo ari ingenzi ku banduye virusi itera SIDA gusa,
ahubwo no mu kugabanya ikwirakwizwa ryayo mu bandi. Hamwe nibi byose, Ubu urwego rwo kwivuza no gukingira iyi virus ruri kuri 73.2%, ni ngombwa ko hafatwa ingamba zose kugirango nibura bigere kuri 100% 2.
Kugeza ubu hari gutegurwa imiti mishya ya virusi itera sida hamwe n’ubuvuzi bugufi bwo kurinda abantu kwandura harimo amahirwe nka meningite ya cryptococcal meningitis, ndetse n’imiti yo gukumira ubwandu nka pre-exphylaxis (PreP) iraboneka, ifite uburyo bwo gukingirwa hakoreshejwe amakarita. Ibi bigatuma buri wese yakwibaza iki kibazo kigira kiti “Uru rukingo rushobora gukumira virusi itera SIDA? Bya burundu?
Ikigo cy’igihugu cy’ubuzima muri Amerika (NIH) kirimo gukora ubushakashatsi ku nkingo zishobora gukumira ubwandu bwa virusi itera sida bya burundu, kandi ubushobozi bwayo bwo kurwanya no kurandura icyorezo cya SIDA biri ku kigero cyo hejuru cyane bivuze ko bitanga icyizere Ndetse urukingo rufite uruhare runini mu gushobora kugabanya umubare w’abantu bandura virusi itera sida, bityo bikagabanya umubare w’abantu bashobora kwanduza abandi.
Ikigeragezo cy’abakandida bakingira virusi itera sida cyatangiriye muri Amerika no muri Afurika yepfo. Ikigeragezo cyo mu cyiciro cya 1 kizasuzuma urukingo rushya ruzwi ku izina rya VIR-1388 kubera umutekano n’ubushobozi bwo gukumira ubwandu bwa virusi itera SIDA mu bantu barubonyemo.
Urukingo rwagenewe kwigisha sisitemu y’umubiri gukora selile T zishobora kumenya virusi itera sida kandi zikerekana ibimenyetso by’ubudahangarwa kugira ngo virusi itandura mu wundi muntu, Ikoresha icyerekezo cya cytomegalovirus (CMV), bivuze ko verisiyo ya CMV yabanje gucibwa intege mu gutanga urwo rukingo rwa virusi itera sida kugirango sisitemu y’umubiri idaterwa indwara mu bitabiriye ubwo bushakashatsi.
CMV mu byukuri iboneka mu baturage benshi ku Isi mu binyejana byinshi, aho abantu benshi babana nayo nta bimenyetso bafite. CMV ikomeje kugaragara mu mubiri muzima, ibyo bikaba byerekana ko ifite ubushobozi bwo gutanga ubuvuzi hanyuma igafasha neza umubiri kugumana ibikoresho ubudahangarwa by’inkingo za virusi itera sida igihe kirekire.
