Preparing for microbicide access: Tanzania country profile.

Abstract

This report is one of a series of country profiles that compile information on demography, HIV epidemiology and health systems in countries hosting or planning to host trials of vaginal microbicides for HIV prevention. Information is also given about regulatory and manufacturing capacity for drugs, and their procurement. A range of key stakeholders were interviewed about what might influence the use of microbicides; the report gives their views on microbicide delivery, manufacturing, registration and procurement, on social and other issues, on the need for additional research and focused advocacy, and on outreach to key stakeholders.
