Improving the specimen referral system in Ghana
Introduction: Ghana's specimen referral system (SRS) is driven by vertical surveillance programs and outbreak response events; the lack of integration limits public health disease surveillance capacity. We assessed the current state of the SRS, the existence of biosafety, biosecurity guidelines, and the turnaround time (TAT) from sample collection to result return. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey using the African Society for Labor…
Implementation of an Integrated Sample Referral System (ISRS) in Ghana
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the fragile health system in Ghana and in particular, its specimen referral system (SRS), which for years had been limited to Tuberculosis (TB), HIV Viral Load and Early Infant Diagnosis among few laboratories. The implementation of a siloed SRS with the sole focus on TB, HIV viral load, and early infant diagnosis has been to the detriment of other diseases of public health importance. This programmat…
Prevalence of and factors associated with late diagnosis of HIV in Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe
Introduction Late diagnosis of HIV (LD) increases the risk of morbidity, mortality, and HIV transmission. We used nationally representative data from population-based HIV impact assessment (PHIA) surveys in Malawi, Zambia, and Zimbabwe (2015–2016) to characterize adults at risk of LD and to examine associations between LD and presumed HIV transmission to cohabiting sexual partners. Methods We estimated the prevalence of LD, defined as CD4 count R…
A national HIV clinical mentorship program
Although Zambia has increased the proportion of people living with HIV (PLHIV) who are on antiretroviral therapy (ART) in recent years, progress toward HIV epidemic control remains inconsistent. Some districts are still failing to meet the UNAIDS 90/90/90 targets where 90% of PLHIV should know their status, 90% of those diagnosed should be on ART, and 90% of those on ART should achieve viral load suppression (VLS) by 2020. Providing consistently …
