Decreasing Adult Prevalence of Advanced HIV Disease From 2 Population-Based HIV Impact Assessments in Eswatini, Lesotho, Malawi, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe, 2015–2023
These findings indicate substantial reductions in AHD prevalence among those on ART between 2015-2017 and 2019-2023. Continued efforts are warranted to ensure timely diagnoses and treatment adherence and reduce barriers to care reengagement, which represent an increasingly important driver of AHD.
