Hard to reach populations in Uganda; An observational cohort study
REFNo: HS607ES
Aim 1-We will first determine CHP coverage and HIV incidence among hard-to-reach persons using enhanced surveillance techniques.
Aim 2-We will then characterize ongoing sources of incident HIV infection through partner tracing of newly HIV-infected participants and matched HIV-negative controls, viral phylogenetics, and sexual network analyses.
Aim 3-Finally, we will determine if state-of-the-art CHP can engage hard-to-reach populations and reduce population-level HIV incidence to a level sufficient for HIV elimination by 2030.
