Not a cure, but the infected would know their status on time and stop spreading it by staying away from raw sex and seek for ART
Good.Just as diabetic patients test themselves every morning to obtain the sugar level for the day.This is a welcome development if it will come into fruition.

Though a welcome development.However,I think some people with lower threshold to uncertainties could be depressed, commit suicide instantly,,and might even revenge by spreading it to more people as he/she is not counselled...
Before anything,pre and post test should be put into consideration with emphasis on the way forward and what is expected of him,how to overcome stigma,discrimination,compliance to ART,and ABCs.
HIV is not just malaria or PT tests..
My opinion shaa...

Help us tell the minister that he is unfair to Joint Health Sector Union. He should pay our withheld salaries of April and May 2018 before he vacates office.

The Federal Government has developed an operational guideline for effective implementation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) self-testing in Nigeria.

The guideline outlines the principles for delivery approach, package, quality assurance and coordination for HIVST in the country.

Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole, who stated this during dissemination of the guideline and report of the Laboratory-based evaluation of Alere HIV Combo rapid test kit, said preliminary results from the Nigeria HIV/AIDS Indicator and Impact Survey (NAIIS) showed that the country has made significant progress in the control of HIV and is on course to attaining the UNAIDS global 90-90-90 targets, to ensure that 90 percent of people, who are infected with HIV know their status, 90 percent of those who know their status receive anti-retroviral therapy (ART) and 90 percent of those on ART are virally suppressed.

Adewole noted that current data reveals that Nigeria has 1.9 million persons infected with HIV with about 1.1 million on ART, adding that in order to meet the target for the first 90, Nigeria must have 1.71 million people, who know their status by testing and identifying up to 600,000 HIV positive persons by December 2020.

Earlier, Director of Public Health in the ministry, Dr. Evelyn Ngige said to ensure accurate and reliable diagnosis of HIV infection in Nigeria, the National AIDS/STIs Control Programme of the Federal Ministry of Health, in collaboration with Development Partners has been conducting evaluations of HIV raid test kits (RTKs) to determine their suitability for placement in the national HIV testing algorithm.
