Prevalence and factors associated with sero-conversion among HIV exposed infants receiving care at Lira regional referral hospital in Lira City: a cross-sectional study

The seroconversion rates among exposed infants in Lira City are higher than the national estimate of 6.9%. Even now that there has been reduced support towards HIV/AIDs services, stakeholders including midwives, the ministry of health and local leaders should align efforts on strengthening appropriate infant feeding counseling, timely ART initiation for newly tested mothers and adherence counselling for unsuppressed mothers and continuously monitoring PMTCT programs.
