Myanmar, a large producer of opium, has an estimated 116,000 PWID, among whom an estimated 26.4% are people living with HIV [&lt;span&gt;2, 3&lt;/span&gt;]. Needle sharing contributed to one-third of the national HIV incidence in 2018 [&lt;span&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;]. The national harm reduction programme includes prevention and care for HIV, viral hepatitis C (HCV), other sexually transmittable infections and tuberculosis (TB), needle and syringe exchange (NSE), and opiate substitution therapy (OST) for PWID [&lt;span&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;]. Yet, nationally, only 24.0% of PWID were tested for HIV, and 47.8% of HIV-positive PWID were on antiretroviral treatment (ART) [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;]. Even in Yangon, PWID experience barriers to access NSE and OST [&lt;span&gt;5&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Putao is a remote sparsely populated district on the slopes of the Himalayas in the far North of Myanmar [&lt;span&gt;6&lt;/span&gt;]. Sources of income include agriculture, and gold mines operated by increasing numbers of migrant workers. Opioid cultivation sites exist [&lt;span&gt;6&lt;/span&gt;]. Heroin injecting is common in Putao, among miners, and in rural communities [&lt;span&gt;7&lt;/span&gt;]. Access to health services for PWID is tremendously challenging. Poor road infrastructure, lack of public transport and extreme remoteness of the villages hamper physical access. OST is restricted to government hospitals. Like elsewhere, PWID are insufficiently aware about the risks of heroin use, associated blood-borne infections, and available care [&lt;span&gt;5&lt;/span&gt;] and often stigmatized by community members [&lt;span&gt;8&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Before 2012, no PWID-specific harm reduction services existed in Putao. HIV testing and ART initiation were provided at a public hospital, where only seven ART patients were registered as PWID before 2012.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Medical Action Myanmar (MAM), a medical organization, is present in Putao since 2012. In a first phase, MAM provided clinic-based primary care services, following a request by a local organization and because no other non-governmental organizations were present. Due to a lack of key population data and PWID-specific services, and a suspicion of PWID presenting with advanced HIV, MAM started clinic-based HIV testing and treatment, while referring TB patients to a local organization for treatment and care. The high incidence of malaria and TB and difficulties with linkage to care prompted MAM to set up a network of community health workers (CHWs) providing malaria, TB and primary healthcare services in remote communities in 2014. CHWs were selected by MAM and village leaders among community volunteers, trained by MAM, and incentivized per diagnosis, referral, and treated malaria or TB patient. Trained CHWs received a joint certificate from the Ministry of Health and MAM. Due to the remoteness of the Putao district, clinic-based HIV services were insufficient to reach most PWID.

The proportion of people who tested positive for HIV may be higher among partners or social contacts of test promoters using SNA compared to non-SNA (RR 1.84, 95% CI: 1.01–3.35, Low certainty). There were no reports of any adverse events or harms associated with SNA. Based on six cost-effectiveness studies, SNA was generally cheaper per person tested and per person diagnosed compared to non-SNA. Based on 23 qualitative studies, SNA is likely to be acceptable to a variety of populations.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Discussion&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Our review collated evidence for SNA to HIV testing covering the key populations and the general population who may benefit from HIV testing. We summarized evidence for the effectiveness, acceptability and cost-effectiveness of different models of SNA. While we did not identify an ideal model of SNA that could be immediately scaled up, for each setting and population targeted, we recommend various implementation considerations as our meta-analysis showed the effectiveness might differ due to factors which include the testing modality (i.e. use of HIV self-testing), type of test promoters, long or short duration of recruitment and use of financial incentives.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Social network-based approaches may enhance HIV testing uptake, increase the proportion of first-time testers and those testing positive for HIV.

Identified themes arrayed along a trajectory of PEP use experience: awareness/knowledge; acceptability; availability/access; uptake/use; adherence/completion. Across studies, awareness of PEP for HIV prevention was high, knowledge about drug regimens and healthcare facility policies was moderate to low; acceptability of PEP was moderate to high; PEP's perceived accessibility/availability was inconsistent and varied by geographic location and setting; HCWs’ uptake of PEP was low, affected by not knowing how to report an exposure and being unaware of PEP availability; and adherence/completion of PEP regimens was moderate to low, impeded by side effects and a belief that completing regimens was unnecessary to avert seroconversion.

Noting the significant role played by the private sector in delivering family planning (FP) services in countries with high HIV burden, high level of private sector OC uptake, and the recent growth in self-care and technology-based private sector channels, we undertook qualitative research in Kenya, South Africa and Zimbabwe to prioritize private sector service delivery approaches for the introduction of the DPP.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Methods&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Between March 2022 and February 2023, we conducted a literature review and key informant interviews with 34 donors and implementing partners, 19 government representatives, 17 private sector organizations, 13 pharmacy and drug shop representatives, and 12 telehealth agencies to assess the feasibility of DPP introduction in private sector channels.

(GPLI) (in English, “Guide to the Red Ribbon”) is a non-for-profit organization providing non-biomedical interventions to support people living with HIV (PLHIV) in the Philippines. As a response to a nationwide survey showing significant associations between unemployment, homelessness and mental distress among PLHIV during the COVID-19 pandemic [&lt;span&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;], GPLI established the flagship programme, “Open Doors Home” (ODH). ODH is a temporary shelter programme with the main goal of addressing psychosocial and socioeconomic needs (also termed “psycho-socioeconomic” or “PsySE”) among PLHIV experiencing mental distress because of homelessness, unemployment, disrupted education, domestic violence or discrimination.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The ODH programme complements biomedical interventions by providing PsySE support (i.e. shelter, nutrition, education, individualized psychosocial counselling, career guidance and livelihood trainings) as social determinants of the HIV care cascade. Guided by the person-centred care (PCC) framework [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;], individualized physical, mental, and socioeconomic needs assessments are done to ensure that the PsySE support is aligned with clients’ preferences and priorities. Clients, termed “housemates,” receive tailored PsySE support based on the individual needs assessment and individualized PCC plan. For example, if the intake interview shows that unemployment is the housemate's main concern, PsySE support will prioritize career path enhancement and referral to GPLI's network of entrepreneurs for hiring while also addressing other basic needs. ODH emphasizes empowerment, with healthcare providers serving only as facilitators to improve the housemates’ problem-solving capacities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Due to limited shelter capacity, a passive intake process is used where potential clients reach out via social media (Twitter/X or Facebook) or through partner organizations (e.g. HIV &amp; AIDS Support House, Positive Action Foundation of the Philippines Inc. and other social hygiene clinics). The requirements for ODH intake are: (a) a summative case study from their medical doctor or a referral letter from the social welfare department or a community-based organization; (b) HIV confirmatory test result; (c) a medical abstract from the last 6 months showing no concurrent opportunistic infections; and (d) copies of two valid identifications for proper coordination with their respective HIV care facilities.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Based on a previous study, SEGT demonstrated improved mental health after engagement within a mutually supportive group environment [&lt;span&gt;3&lt;/span&gt;]. In ODH, SEGT was designed into four domains with 12 modules that guide housemates in expressing their emotions through focused group discussions. The modules adapted the Filipino core values of social psychology [&lt;span&gt;4&lt;/span&gt;].
