The United States government, through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), has announced intensified measures to prevent HIV spread in Kenya. This initiative, in collaboration with Kenya's Ministry of Health, aims to expand access to HIV testing and ensure timely treatment for patients across the country.

• Approximately 1.378 million people in Kenya were living with HIV as of October 2024, with 97 percent on medication.
• The US government plans to establish better HIV testing laboratories, addressing the current limitation of only seven laboratories in Kenya capable of advanced testing.
• The CDC annually supports over 11 million HIV diagnostic tests, 1.2 million viral load tests, 120,000 EID tests, and 900,000 Tuberculosis tests in Kenya.
