Self-testing for HIV at home – successful project in Bulgaria

Newsdesk -

Self-testing can work out less expensive, and a demonstration project conducted last year clearly shows the role it can play. The findings are especially relevant to health authorities working hard to maintain essential services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
