Table 2:
Infections averted amongst people who inject drugs and the relative decrease in incidence between 2008 and 2015 for the different scenarios of interventions being scaled-up from 2008. Ranges in brackets are 95% credibility intervals.
| Change from 2008 to 2015 compared to counterfactual |
Mean number of infections |
Mean infections averted (95% CrI) |
Mean relative decrease in incidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| No change (i.e. no intervention scale-up or decrease in proportion high-risk) |
6353 (3450–9728) |
N/A | 27.4% (17.6−37.0%) |
| Scale-up of OST and high coverage NSP only |
5337 (3035–8329) |
1016 (308−1996) | 47.3% (30.0−62.7%) |
| Scale-up of OST and high coverage NSP plus decrease in high-risk status |
4933 (2714–7767) |
1420 (613−2544) | 57.9% (41.1−72.3%) |
| Scale-up of OST and high coverage NSP plus decrease in high risk status plus increase in HCV treatment |
4861 (2646–7681) |
1492 (657−2646) | 61.3% (45.1−75.3%) |
