  • Description:
    Located in the Thailand Ministry of Public Health (MOPH) in Nonthaburi since 2001, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) collaborates with government and non-governmental partners, including civil society organizations and multilateral organizations, to scale up and evaluate effective approaches to reach, test, treat, and retain persons living with HIV (PLHIV) with a focus on men who have sex with men and transgender women in 14 high HIV burden provinces. Specific aims include:

    • Promote timely diagnosis and linkage to treatment and care services through a combination of case finding strategies, including index testing, HIV self-testing, and social network strategies.

    • Promote pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) use to prevent new HIV infections in the highest-risk populations through targeted campaigns and by strengthening public PrEP services.

    • Develop a model for adolescents and young men who have sex with men for linking to testing and treatment.

    • Promote same-day/rapid antiretroviral therapy (ART) for newly diagnosed individuals to ensure treatment initiation and prevent further transmission.

    • Scale-up enhanced adherence counseling, treatment literacy, multi-month dispensing of ART for stable patients, and differentiated service delivery to ensure treatment continuity.

    • Increase access to viral load (VL) testing, develop automatic detectable VL alerts, and strengthen sustainable VL networks to improve patient outcomes.

    • Develop digital health platforms to improve coordination between laboratory and HIV teams to advance the care delivery process and outcomes.

    • Strengthen strategic information systems and human resource capacity to monitor and evaluate the national HIV program.

    • Establish the national quality improvement committee, promote data use to identify annual national quality improvement themes and poor performance sites, and conduct coaching to enhance HIV services.

    • Develop community-led monitoring activities to provide feedback on HIV service gaps.

    • Develop HIV stigma and discrimination reduction e-learning for medical and nursing students and promote HIV stigma and discrimination e-learning for health care providers.

    • Collaborate with the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria, and other tuberculosis (TB)/HIV partners to implement TB preventive therapy among PLHIV and pilot new TB diagnostic method for advanced HIV disease
