Abstract
HIV self-testing is a key measure and strategy to expand the coverage of HIV testing in key populations, which has great value in application and high acceptance in key populations. The World Health Organization (WHO) issued the Guidelines on HIV self-testing and partner notification in 2016 to support the application of HIV self-testing and provide specific guidance for countries and organizations to develop corresponding public health policies for the purpose of improving the accessibility and utilization of HIV diagnostics. HIV self-testing has been promoted in many countries and has achieved great results. This article provides an overview of the current domestic and international HIV self-testing policies, intervention models, the use of self-testing kits, the accuracy of self-testing kits, and the application of pre- and post-testing counseling services to provide reference for the further improvement of HIV self-testing in China.
