  • 3. Carers and children where appropriate, willing and able to give informed consent
  • 4. HIV-infected, as determined by:
  • a. Two separate HIV-antibody enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or rapid tests on the same sample in children >18 months
  • b. Two positive proviral DNA tests taken on separate samples in children <18 months
  • 5. Previously untreated with antiretrovirals, including any ART given to prevent mother to child transmission
