Background

HIV-related mortality has diminished in the last two decades; however, the causes of death have shifted from AIDS to non-AIDS related causes such as tuberculosis and NCDs.

Comorbidities are a major public health problem among people living with HIV (PLWHIV), particularly in developing countries, where the HIV burden is the highest.

In Kenya, there are 1,400,000 PLWHIV but the impact of comorbidities is still not clearly defined.
