Antiretroviral therapy in Malawi
Posted on May 14, 2008 by malawiclinics
Research from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine in the UK and the Karonga Prevention Study in Malawi suggests that deaths from AIDS in rural parts of Malawi were averted by the rapid scale-up of free antiretroviral therapy. There was no change in the mortality rates of adults older than 6o years.
The study was funded by the Wellcome Trust and the British Leprosy Relief Association.
The Lancet has the published findings.
