4. Facilitating Factors in VMMC scale-up Community buy-in and engagement of traditional leaders Political will and country ownership Strategic communication Strong leadership and coordination from the Ministry of Health with the National and Provincial MC Task Forces Enough resources for service delivery Technical support from partners Capacity to change strategy as new information becomes available Task shifting to clinical officers and nurses Mobility of service delivery: taking services to people Dedication of sites with campaign style Mixed staffing models (public and private/NGO) Practicality: temporary services, continuous services Innovation

6. Male circumcision for HIV prevention in high HIV prevalence settings: What can mathematical modelling contribute to informed decision making? PLoS Medicine 2009: e1000109 UNAIDS/WHO/SACEMA Women will benefit indirectly, although the effect will be smaller than the direct effect for men and will take longer to develop. The benefits are likely to be large, with one HIV infection averted for every 5 to 15 male circumcisions performed, using a 10 year horizon. 6 modelling teams addressed 8 questions of key concern to policy makers Population-level Impacts by Coverage Medical male circumcision is highly cost-effective with costs to avert one HIV infection from US$150-$900 using a 10 year time horizon.

Decision-makers’ programme planning tool Developed by Futures Institute in collaboration with UNAIDS under the USAID/Health Policy Initiative Supports decision makers to understand the cost and impact of scaling-up male circumcision services by service delivery approach, priority populations, pace of scale-up Populations: –All adult males –15-24 or 15-29 year old males –Adolescents prior to starting sexual activity –Newborns –Men at higher risk of HIV exposure –others
