ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Of 277 HIV-infected children in rural Rwanda enrolled in a community-based accompaniment program, 95.0% were retained in care 5 years after treatment initiation, with only 9 (3.3%) deaths and 3 (1.1%) defaults. Of 235 (84.8%) children with a documented viral load result, 201 (85.5%) demonstrated viral load suppression (<1000 copies/mL).
