A molecular HIV/Aids viral load testing machine installed at Kenya Medical Research Institute (Kemri) in Kisumu has increased by 53 per cent the number of people in the county getting tested.

The Cobas 8800 instrument installed in 2016 by Swiss healthcare firm Roche has grown the number of HIV/Aids tests by half a million thanks to the reduced results-waiting time.
