Summary

The aim of the study is to measure the effectiveness of a pilot program in Guangxi, China to decrease mortality related to HIV.

The study's proposed mechanism of decreasing mortality rates is to shorten the time between initial HIV screening and ART implementation to within two weeks.

The study population consists of participants who received an initial HIV infection diagnosis within the study period. Medical institutions will provide "one-stop services" by following detailed guidelines regarding reporting of positive HIV antibody screenings, further testing procedures, and treatment referrals in accordance with a pre-determined timetable. In addition, additional strategies focusing on policy development, medical personnel training, and a broad general public education campaign will be implemented.

Main assessment measures are HIV-related mortality rates, treatment coverage, or other health outcomes.
