HIV prevalence has declined, new HIV infections has more than halved, and a conducive HIV policy environment and HIV financing mechanisms have been developed. ... See More + Whilst these outcomes have been impressive, there is room for improvement. Zimbabwe is keen to understand how to even further improve the efficiency of its HIV program, within the context of its overall health financing strategy to improve.

This emphasizes the importance of biomedical and behavioral interventions working together and in a complementary way. The fact that the combination intervention program was cost-saving, is further proof of the need to implement such approaches to HIV moving forward.  See Less -
