“…At lower levels, whether in the public or private sector, capacity for CD4 count testing, as well as other HIV-related diagnostic tests, existed where the facility was supported by an implementing partner or other external funders, a situation which raises concern about sustainability [41,42]. The test and treat strategy, the recommended and increasing donor support for routine HVL testing, and the consequent decrease in CD4 count testing as per guidelines all likely contributed to the lower access to CD4 count testing observed in our study [43][44][45]. A declining trend of CD4 count measurement has been observed in many southern African countries since the beginning of the Test and Treat era in alignment with our findings [46][47][48].…”

The 2016–2017 Tanzania HIV Impact Survey (THIS) reported the accomplishments towards the 90-90-90 global HIV targets at 61-94-87, affirming the need to focus on the first 90 (i.e., getting 90% of people living with HIV (PLHIV) tested). We conducted a patient-pathway analysis to understand the gap observed, by assessing the alignment between where PLHIV seek healthcare and where HIV services are available in the Shinyanga region, Tanzania. We used existing and publicly available data from the National AIDS Control program, national surveys, registries, and relevant national reports. Region-wide, the majority (n = 458/722, 64%) of THIS respondents accessed their last HIV test at public sector facilities. There were 65.9%, 45.1%, and 74.1% who could also access antiretroviral therapy (ART), CD4 testing, and HIV viral load testing at the location of their last HIV test, respectively. In 2019, the viral suppression rate estimated among PLHIV on ART in the Shinyanga region was 91.5%. PLHIV access HIV testing mostly in public health facilities; our research shows that synergies can be achieved to improve access to services further down the cascade in this sector. Furthermore, effective engagement with the private sector (not-for-profit and for-profit) will help to achieve the last mile toward ending the HIV epidemic.

“…This paper only considers deletion and starting again (cancel). Alternatives include the use of arrow keys, insertion and overwrite modes, and more [ 34 ]. All of these features could be evaluated using the methodology introduced in this paper, but the number of design combinations grows exponentially and would unfortunately be unsuitable to present in a single paper.…”

Number entry is a ubiquitous activity and is often performed in safety- and mission-critical procedures, such as healthcare, science, finance, aviation and in many other areas. We show that Monte Carlo methods can quickly and easily compare the reliability of different number entry systems. A surprising finding is that many common, widely used systems are defective, and induce unnecessary human error. We show that Monte Carlo methods enable designers to explore the implications of normal and unexpected operator behaviour, and to design systems to be more resilient to use error. We demonstrate novel designs with improved resilience, implying that the common problems identified and the errors they induce are avoidable.
