Data reported in Mberengwa district suggests that less than 40% of PLWHA on ART had a viral load test done which translates to 32% viral suppression of all the patients on ART. This falls far short of reaching the national target of 90% viral suppression in patients on ART. The current study assessed the implementation of viral load monitoring guidelines in Mberengwa district.enViral load monitoringAntiretroviral therapyTreatment failureSecond-line antiretroviral therapyHIV/AIDSPublic healthZimbabweAn assessment of the use of viral load monitoring on people living with HIV/AIDS taking antiretroviral therapy by nurses working at rural health centers in Mberengwa district, ZimbabweUniversity of the Western Cape
