Eswatini and South Africa’s Eastern Cape are rolling out a twice-yearly HIV prevention injection to boost adherence and cut new infections.
Eswatini and South Africa’s Eastern Cape have begun rolling out lenacapavir, a long-acting HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) injected twice yearly, to improve adherence and reduce new infections.
Eswatini has administered the drug to about 2,000 people since December, while the Eastern Cape’s initial phase covers 8,300 people across 49 clinics, funded by the Global Fund.
The injectable, developed by Gilead Sciences, follows WHO guidelines and aims to expand access, reduce stigma, and lower HIV transmission, particularly among youth.
Both regions plan nationwide expansions, with long-term sustainability to be addressed through pricing and potential generic production.
