À l’heure où des techniques innovantes de dépistage sur le lieu de soins (POC) sont mises sur le marché, le présent rapport soumet à l’attention des gouvernements un examen des principaux aspects relatifs à leur introduction et à leur extension au sein des programmes publics nationaux. L...’élargissement de la portée de cette stratégie aux réseaux nationaux de dépistage des laboratoires conventionnels contribuerait à la réalisation des objectifs d’accélération de la riposte visant à mettre fin à l’épidémie de sida d’ici à 2030.
Le dépistage sur le lieu de soins, lorsqu’il est stratégiquement mis en place et intégré dans les réseaux nationaux de dépistage, peut contribuer à promouvoir des changements et à améliorer la prestation des services cliniques et de dépistage. Le présent document s’inspire de l’expérience acquise en matière d’introduction, par le biais de financements catalysateurs, de techniques de dépistage sur le lieu de soin dans les programmes et les marchés de nombreux pays d’Afrique subsaharienne pour défendre ce point de vue.

Based on the Vulnerability Index developed in this review, an estimated 22.7 million persons in Myanmar, or 44% of the population, were found to have some form of vulnerability related to human development and/or exposure to active conflict/violence. These people experience varying combinations of p...oor housing, lack of education, poor educational attainment, lack of access to safe sanitation and improved drinking water, and direct exposure to conflict.
Shan and Ayeyarwady have the largest populations of vulnerable persons, a function of both their size and relative vulnerability in comparison to other States and Regions. Yangon and Shan show the widest variation in vulnerability across townships (in terms of the number of vulnerable persons and their level of vulnerability), followed by Mandalay, Chin and Rakhine.
