We had a successful event working with traditional health practitioners and discussed couples-based HIV testing and findings from our Igugu Lethu study. Thank you @AHRI_News and @HSRCza for collaborating with us!

Yesterday @HSRCza & AHRI in collaboration with @unisouthampton hosted a community dialogue with traditional health practitioners in Durban. We discussed couples-based HIV testing, health & well-being & reviewed evidence from the Igugu Lethu study.

Our combination immunotherapy clinical trial shows that following ART interruption, 4/20 participants controlled HIV without ART for up to 1.5 years. This study sets the stage for more HV cure research in Africa, where the need is greatest @HPP_Research @AHRI_News @SciforAfrica

We are working with different faith communities to help couples where one person has #diabetes work together to manage their health. We've completed the programme 'Diabetes Together' in 1 church & will continue with more places of worship #CommunityHealth #CommunityBasedResearch

Community engagement is important for uptake of testing. Involving couples to promote the uptake of testing can also be a useful way forward bit.ly/3R5mHSR

@PactWorld Sounds like an exciting topic and much needed area of research! Our #IguguLethu intervention supported couples in learning more about HIV and highlighted the need for mental health support and dealing with relationship issues
