Community-based enhanced adherence counseling among people living with HIV in Ethiopia: outcomes and key predictors of viral suppression
CEAC service demonstrated encouraging results in supporting VLS among PLHIVs on ART with unsuppressed VL count. Community-based interventions showed potential in addressing individual barriers that were challenging to health facility to improve VLS. We recommend continuing efforts to scale up and integrate CEAC with ongoing health facility EAC services to synergistically improve VLS and accelerate epidemic control.
