This practice leads to minimal disclosure rates contributing to the high HIV prevalence rates. This book provides more insight on how healthcare providers can step in and assist HIV positive persons better notify their partners about their exposure while limiting negative outcomes such as partner violence.

There is however need for more training and funding in order for such a program to be successfully implemented in limited resource settings.
