Summary
The SEARCH study aims to test evidenced-based innovative community based interventions that lead to the elimination of HIV in rural communities in East Africa using a multi-disease approach. The first phase of the study will quantify the impact of early HIV diagnosis using a streamlined and immediate ART (antiretroviral therapy). The second phase of the study, will quantify the impact of targeted Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) in the context of universal treatment and streamlined care. The study intervention is designed to improve the entire continuum of care, to reduce structural barriers for all populations including those most "at risk".
