Date
Recency testing allows persons to more accurately identify when an HIV infection occurred. As such, it enables healthcare workers and persons recently infected with HIV to be able to identify partners who may need to be tested for HIV, thus aiding in early detection and treatment. This will help Trinidad achieve its 95-95-95 targets as outlined by UNAIDS.
