Enhancing linkage to care for HIV in South Africa: A cohort study in uThukela District
Enhancing linkage to care for HIV in South Africa: A cohort study in uThukela District
Evaluation Report | First survey 2017-2019
This project sought to evaluate the linkage to and retention in HIV care rates, and the possible barriers and facilitators to HIV care in a single high HIV prevalence rural setting in South Africa. Enhancing linkage to and retention in care is important for the universal test and treat (UTT) strategy to achieve its full potential impact on the epidemic. Furthermore, this study through routine data collection sought to improve district and facility HIV services, offer much-needed epidemiological information at national level to further strengthen the HIV programme, and assist South Africa in reaching the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 90-90-90 targets (UNAIDS, 2020).
