Amref Health Africa in partnership with
Ministry of Health, TACAIDS,UNAIDS in Tanzania and Salama Foundation will offer
free HIV testing in multiple selected sites in Dar es salaam City on 29th
November 2014. This is part of the national HIV Testing Campaign to mark the
World AIDs Day in 2014.
In Tanzania, sixty-two percent (62)
of women and 47 percent of men have ever been tested and received the results
of their HIV test according to the THMIS 2011/12. The results lead to a gap of
53% for men and 38% for women that needs HTC services. So, let us join together during this World AIDS Day to
close the gap
Knowing one’s status is the first
step in getting to early treatment. Earlier testing leads to earlier diagnosis
and better health outcomes. However, significant numbers of people living with
HIV continue to present themselves for testing at a late stage, leading to
adverse health outcomes.
In Dar es Salaam we will be
commemorating the World AIDS Day on 29 of November by engaging community
members including Public and Private sector for free HIV Testing and
Counseling. Servises will be provided in the frollowng areas from 9.00AM to
5.00 PM.
