ZIMPHIA, a nationally representative household-based survey, was conducted from October 2015 to August 2016 to measure the status of Zimbabwe’s national HIV response. The survey offered homebased HIV testing and counseling (HBTC) with same-day return of results, and collected information about uptake of HIV care and treatment services.
It was the first in Zimbabwe to measure national HIV incidence, prevalence of viral load (VL) suppression (VLS), and pediatric HIV prevalence.
The survey also collected information on selected behaviors associated with HIV acquisition and transmission, on common HIV co-morbidities, and other health conditions.
