The Ministry of Health has reassured the public that there will be no disruptions in the provision of HIV-related services, despite recent changes in external supply arrangements.

In a statement, Secretary for Health Dr. Samson Mndolo directed central and district hospital leadership to optimize existing resources to maintain access to HIV prevention, care, and treatment services.

“All HIV services, including testing, viral load sample collection, supply chain management, and record-keeping, should be provided by trained personnel from the Ministry of Health, CHAM, IHAM, or private facilities,” the statement reads.

The Ministry has also urged facility managers to reassign qualified staff to cover service gaps and maximize existing infrastructure for efficient service delivery.
