  Role of Public-Private Partnerships in Achieving UNAIDS’ 90-90-90 HIV Treatment Targets in Africa

  

  This review article identifies the benefits, enabling factors, and associated challenges for public and private sectors to engage in public-private partnerships. These partnership contributions to laboratory systems strengthening are a model, and present opportunities that can be leveraged to strengthen systems to accelerate the scale up of Viral Load and Early Infant Diagnosis to achieve the UNAIDS 90–90-90 treatment targets for HIV/AIDS.

LARC is a useful tool that can be used by countries to address inefficiencies at the laboratory-clinical interface at clinic level, and achieve the 3rd ‘90’ of the UNAIDS 90·90-90 HIV targets.
