Brief Summary

Egypt is a HIV low prevalence country but between 2010 and 2019 newly infected cases have more than quadrupled, and the rise continues at an alarming pace. Maintaining over 95% adherence level among the PLHIV in developing countries is a crucial issue to maintain viral suppression, to minimize HIV related morbidity and mortality. The present study aims to identify the level of adherence and the factors influencing adherence to ART in Assiut Governorate. To the best of our knowledge, no previous studies on adherence to antiretroviral therapy and its associated factors in HIV infected individuals were done in Egypt.
