21/02/2018Realizing the potential of routine viral load testing in sub-Saharan AfricaJournal of the International AIDS Society - "The global HIV response has been remarkably successful. More than 19 million persons living with HIV (PLHIV) have accessed life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART) and the annual number of HIV-related deaths and new HIV infections have both plummeted. As countries strive to reach the UNAIDS 90:90:90 targets (i.e. for 90% of PLHIV to be aware of their diagnosis, 90% of those who know their diagnosis to receive ART, and 90% of those on ART to have durable viral load suppression, new guidelines, tools and implementation strategies are vitally important. |
