Abstract：HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) can threat the long-term effects of antiretroviral therapy (ART), and jeopardize the goal of eliminating HIV in 2030. Different strategies are adopted in different countries to prevent and assess the emergence and transmission of HIVDR. In high income countries, the HIVDR testing for individual with HIV is used at present. In most of middle- and low-income countries, population level strategies are recommended, including monitoring of HIVDR early warning indicators, surveillance of acquired drug resistance in populations receiving ART, surveillance of pretreatment drug resistance, surveillance of transmitted drug resistances, and surveillance of HIVDR among treatment-naive infant less than 18 months of age. The combination of individual HIVDR testing and population-level surveys are taken as the prevention strategy in China.
