Figure 1. The number of HIV‐exposed infants and the percentage receiving birth HIV‐PCR during the three policy periods.

Change in EID policy is indicated by the black arrows. Generation of infant numbers at MPMOU was poor at the start of period 1, affecting linkage of infants and their mothers. Some exposed neonates were therefore not included. Few infants were born to enrolled women after March 2016 (antenatal recruitment having ceased in December 2015).
