HIV/T

 

 

Introduction

Tuberculosis is the commonest opportunistic infection in People Living with HIV (PLHIVs) and continues to be a public health challenge in India. TB is the foremost cause of death among the PLHIVs. HIV TB together is a fatal combination overall TB is estimated to be cause about 25% of all deaths among PLHIVs in India. Early detection of HIV TB cases and prompt provision of Anti-retro viral treatment (ART) and Anti TB Treatment (ATT) are the key interventions to reduce mortality rate significantly. To mitigate the effect of dual burden of HIV and TB co-infection , the strong collaboration between NACP and RNTCP has helped in enhancing HIV testing coverage among notified TB cases and intensified TB case finding activities are being implemented among PLHIVs in the State.
