Weekend mobile testing at two of Dar's busiest entertainment corridors becomes a fixture of SAUTI delivery.

01

Why weekends

FSW and vAGYW hotspot density peaks on Friday and Saturday nights. Testing at 10am on a Tuesday misses the population that matters most.

02

Three-month tally

1,418 tests delivered, 47 new positives identified, 44 linked to ART within fourteen days. Yield (3.3%) is well above static-site averages.
