First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests two programs to help young people aged 15-24 in Nigeria. One program focuses on finding undiagnosed HIV cases using mobile health tools and peer support. The other helps those already diagnosed stick to their HIV medication to achieve viral suppression. The goal is to reduce the spread of HIV and improve health outcomes in this age group.
