The correct answer is option 2 – HIV. The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has launched the Test and Treat Policy for HIV patients. This policy aims to provide immediate access to testing and treatment for all individuals who are diagnosed with HIV. It ensures that anyone who tests positive for HIV will receive prompt antiretroviral therapy (ART) regardless of their CD4 count or clinical stage. This policy is significant in the fight against HIV/AIDS as it eliminates the requirement for a CD4 count and ensures that treatment is initiated as early as possible, leading to better health outcomes and reducing the risk of transmission.
