Assessing the efficiency and effectiveness of community-based voluntary counseling and testing for HIV in Turin: insights from the fast-track cities initiative - a cross-sectional study

CBVCT programs in Turin demonstrated high feasibility and effectiveness in engaging the target population and ensuring linkage to care. However, syphilis testing requires greater integration. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to address disparities in testing behaviors and reinforce the economic sustainability of early HIV diagnosis and treatment.

Abstract

CBVCT programs in Turin demonstrated high feasibility and effectiveness in engaging the target population and ensuring linkage to care. However, syphilis testing requires greater integration. The findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to address disparities in testing behaviors and reinforce the economic sustainability of early HIV diagnosis and treatment.
