Description:
Measuring progress towards goals of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy (NHAS) relies on laboratory reporting of HIV-related tests to the local and national HIV surveillance systems. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends reporting of all HIV-related test results, including CD4+ T-lymphocyte (CD4) results and all viral load test results. This comprehensive laboratory reporting recommendation is in alignment with the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists’ (CSTE) position (ID: 2001-ID-03 Committee: Infectious Disease Title: The impact of new technologies and therapies on HIV/AIDS surveillance: routine nationwide reporting of CD4, STAHRS, antiretroviral resistance, and viral load test results).
