“We need to think how they think”: reaching young people and men is critical to curbing HIV in North West Province
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Reducing new infections among young people, and increasing antiretroviral treatment coverage and viral suppression among men, is critical to maintain momentum towards controlling the HIV epidemic in South Africa’s North West Province. This was one of the takeaways from an HSRC dialogue around the results of the latest national household HIV survey. Encouragingly, the survey revealed widespread interest in the preventative treatment known as pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), suggesting that with enhanced awareness, PrEP could prove to be a game changer in North West.
