WHO develops guidelines for integrated HIV, viral hepatitis, and STI testing

WHO is developing guidelines for multiplex testing to integrate diagnostics for HIV, viral hepatitis, and STIs. The guidelines will establish principles for integrated testing, addressing the latest evidence and promoting efficient, cost-effective disease detection, especially in low- and middle-income countries. This marks the first WHO guideline specifically on multiplex testing, aiming to guide public health impact and future multi-disease testing approaches.
