PHNOM PENH: Cambodia has been in the forefront of
fighting against HIV and AIDS gaining success of reversing its generalized HIV
epidemic among adult population from a hight almost 1.75% in the late 1990s to
a projected 0.7% in 2012. A stronger health system and improved service
delivery and linkage have made its possible for approximately 80% of adults and
children living with HIV and in need of antiretroviral therapy (ART) to access
care and treatment at Continuum of Care (CoC) sites. Despite these successes,
pockets of high prevalence continue exists, particularly in most-at-risk
populations (MARPs), entertainment workers (EWs), men who have sex with men
(MSM), transgender women (TG), and people who injecting drugs (PWID).
Thus, standard operating procedure (SOP) for boosted
continuum of prevention to care and treatment (Boosted CoPCT) for MARPs was
developed in order to eliminate new HIV infections in Cambodia by 2020
(Cambodia 3.0).
