TB and HIV Epidemiology and Collaborative Service: Evidence from Ethiopia, 2011-2015.

This may be interpreted in two ways: (i) establishing and strengthening collaborative activities in the high HIV burden regions contributed to a decreasing trend between 2010 and 2013; 15 and (ii) the WHO updating of universal guidelines in 2012, recommending the use of ART for all PLHIV co-infected with TB, may have led to improved health-seeking behaviour and intensified case finding.
