MIN/Sp/AU/CAMH3/6 HIV/AIDS Page 10 access to health services for people living with HIV 9 . Among 35 countries in the WHO Africa region, one in every five facilities provide HTC services—ranging from less than 1% in Liberia to 100% in Botswana (Figure 3.4, adjusted the scale to reflect a maximum of a 100%). In 2007, the total number of health facilities that provided HTC services ranged 1 in Liberia to 1,107 facilities in Cameroon. Tanzania reported second in the term of available HTC facilities with 1,035. The median number of the HTC facilities per country is 164. In the EMRO region, Somalia is scaling up integrated prevention, treatment, care and support aligning ART, voluntary counseling and testing with the support of the Global Fund. In Sudan there is very limited access to prevention, testing, treatment, care and support, especially in rural areas. A more compelling statistic is the actual uptake of VCT (ie. percentage of people who take an HIV test and receive the results compared to the targets of respective countries – where these are available). Fig 3.5 shows the percent of men and women who received an HIV test in the last 12 months and know their results in selected countries. The figure shows the variability in progress in the countries. HTC coverage remains low in Africa.
