Healthcare workers’ experiences with integrated HIV and TB prevention in Liangshan, China: a qualitative exploration of barriers and enablers
The IPC4D policy demonstrates potential to reduce HIV/TB disparities in Liangshan, yet sustained progress requires dedicated TB financing, culturally competent workforce training, rational task redistribution, and stigma-reduction strategies that leverage Yi community networks. These findings provide practical insights for adapting integrated disease-control policies in other high-burden, resource-constrained settings.
