Results of this study show that a large proportion (73%) of patients have rapid and successful immune and virological responses to ART and that factors which predict this response include starting ART early, whereas viral load is low and CD4 count is high, with fewer drugs. These results further support the ongoing need for ongoing programmes to increase early HIV testing, early linkage to and treatment with ART, and increased viral suppression.
