The National AIDS Control Organization
(NACO) has facilitated service provision for HIV/AIDS and related
co-morbidities like Tuberculosis during the COVID-19 pandemic to all persons
registered with the various facilities under the programme.
NACO issued guidance notes to all State/
Union Territories AIDS Control Societies (SACS) to ensure continuity of service
provisions as much as possible through differentiated modalities like
multi-month dispensation of Anti-retroviral treatment (ART), community-based screening
for HIV and decentralized options for management. Necessary actions were taken
to ensure unhindered movements of front-line workers and vehicles towards
emergency relocations and delivery of medicines to people living with HIV/AIDS.
States were further instructed not to deny
medicines if any HIV positive patients were stranded in other States/districts
during the pandemic.
NACO also convened several virtual
meetings with all stakeholders including community representatives to regularly
review and reiterate these instructions.
NACO has also written to all SACS as well
as Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment for inclusion of PLHIV, and other
related populations in social protection schemes.
NACO has not conducted any study on impact
of COVID-19 on people suffering from HIV/AIDS.
