Description:The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) began collaborating with South African nongovernmental and community-based organizations in 1989 to address the country’s growing HIV epidemic.
In 1995, CDC-South Africa strengthened its support and began working with the Government of South Africa to develop national HIV clinical, ethical, and research guidelines along with HIV and tuberculosis (TB) service delivery programs. With the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) launch in 2003, this support rapidly expanded, and today strategically prioritizes:
• HIV treatment and prevention,
• Integration of HIV and TB in clinical services,
• Strong laboratory systems,
• Robust health information systems to support quality patient care and program accountability,
• Disease surveillance and response systems for HIV, TB, and other diseases of national significance,
• Public health workforce capacity, placement, and retention.
