Viral load dynamics among adults receiving HIV care in rural North-Eastern South Africa, 2015–2020
Introduction: The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS set ambitious-but-reachable targets to have 95% of HIV-positive people diagnosed, 95% on ART, and 95% virally suppressed by 2030. To address the latter, post-2016, South Africa's HIV treatment guidelines aimed to deliver maximal and durable viral load (VL) suppression through extensive antiretroviral therapy (ART) scale-up. Yet, standard suppression one-off measurement conceals viral re…
The Association Between HIV-Related Stigma and the Uptake of HIV Testing and ART Among Older Adults in Rural South Africa
HIV testing and antiretroviral therapy (ART) remain critical for curbing the spread of HIV/AIDS, but stigma can impede access to these services. Using data from the Health and Aging in Africa: A Longitudinal Study of an INDEPTH Community in South Africa (HAALSI), we used a multivariable logistic regression to examine the correlation between HIV-related stigma, HIV testing and ART uptake in older adults. We used four questions to measure stigma, w…
In-Person Social Interactions and Anxiety During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Although the anxiety symptoms of women and men were similarly affected by declines in in-person social interaction, the modifying influence of household size is unique to women, likely due to gender-specific social roles. For women, living in larger households may mean greater caregiving burden, exacerbating the detrimental association between physical distancing and anxiety. On the other hand, both women and men may have used virtual means to co…
Pregnancy-related healthcare utilisation in Agincourt, South Africa, 1993–2018

We described pregnancy-related healthcare utilisation among rural South African women from 1993 to 2018, a period of social, political and economic transition. METHODS: We included participants enrolled in the Agincourt Health and Socio-Demographic Surveillance System in Mpumalanga Province, South Africa, a pop…
