Description:The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) office was established in Vietnam in 1998.
Since 2003, CDC has been a principal agency implementing HIV programs under the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) in Vietnam. CDC also supports Vietnam’s National Tuberculosis (TB) Program (NTP) with direct technical assistance (TA). With Vietnam’s entry into middle-income status, the country continues to embrace financial and program responsibility for HIV and TB services for its citizens. With the Ministry of Health, CDC Vietnam supports the transition of HIV services to domestic financing and program responsibility. This transition prioritizes continuity and quality of patient services while accelerating toward sustainable HIV epidemic control through concentrated efforts among key populations (KP) such as men who have sex with men (MSM) in two priority regions - the Northern Economic Zone and Ho Chi Minh City Metropolitan Area. CDC has been providing technical support to Vietnam’s NTP to strengthen efforts to find, cure, and prevent TB, HIV-associated TB, and multidrugresistant TB. These efforts include building capacity to operationalize new and existing TB control tools and using evidence to drive data-driven TB control and prevention activities. As a key partner working with the Government of Vietnam (GVN) on the COVID-19 response, CDC TA has supported uninterrupted essential HIV/TB services throughout the pandemic.
