• Description:
  Advanced HIV Disease (AHD) is a remaining hurdle in the care and treatment cascade in Mozambique and has the potential to delay Mozambique's progress towards the UNAIDS 95-95-95 goals for 2025. An improved understanding of the prevalence and demographics of people with AHD is critical to address this important condition.
  
  Data were reviewed from October to December 2023 from the 79 health facilities at a national level implementing the AHD diagnosis and treatment package at the national level.
  
  Overall, 36% (7.811/21.452) of people living with HIV new initiated or reinitiated on antiviral treatment had a CD4 test, of which 1.986 were diagnosed with AHD (25%). Most of the diagnosed cases were in people living with HIV that were newly initiated (1.814) versus those being reinitiated (179).
  
  The low coverage of CD4 testing in eligible patients is an obstacle to the early identification of AHD patients and the reduction of mortality, and consequently a barrier to HIV elimination in Mozambique.
