Challenges Faced by Perinatally-Infected Kenyan Adolescents and Youth Living with HIV During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Effect of care environment on educational attainment among orphaned and separated children and adolescents in Western Kenya
Children living in institutional environments were more likely to complete primary school and some secondary school than children living in family-based care. Further support is needed for all orphans to improve primary and secondary school completion. Policies that require orphans to leave institution environments upon their eighteenth birthday may be preventing these youth from completing secondary school
The impact of care environment on the mental health of orphaned, separated and street-connected children and adolescents in western Kenya
INTRODUCTION: The effect of care environment on orphaned and separated children and adolescents' (OSCA) mental health is not well characterised in sub-Saharan Africa.

Accuracy and Acceptability of Oral Fluid HIV Self-Testing in a General Adult Population in Kenya
We evaluated performance, accuracy, and acceptability parameters of unsupervised oral fluid (OF) HIV self-testing (HIVST) in a general population in western Kenya.

All reactive, discrepant, and a proportion of negative results were confirmed with lab ELISA. Twenty participants were video-r…
