Kenya clocks 90pc HIV suppression milestone among patients on drugs
The progress has been driven by the introduction of the Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) programme for HIV prevention, with a 64 percent uptake among eligible people.
The number of people on lifelong antiretroviral treatment in Kenya has almost doubled, resulting in a 90 percent viral suppression rate among those on treatment.
Viral suppression means having less than 200 copies of HIV per milliliter of blood. It enables people living with HIV to live long, healthy lives with zero risk of sexual transmission.
