HIV/AIDS emerged as a major public health problem in Ethiopia since the early 1990s. Though the response to the epidemic has been scaled-up since recently, the effectiveness of the response is yet to be evaluated. Despite high prevalence of HIV/AIDS in the country, care and support services seem to be inadequate and lack strength to address real needs of the patients.

Specific and evidence based recommendations were forwarded to policy makers, implementers and patients on the areas of major gaps identified so that appropriate measures to be taken.
