Master of Public Health - MPH / Sub-Saharan African countries including Rwanda are facing a double burden of communicable
and non-communicable diseases (NCDs). As HIV and AIDS management improves, the AIDS
related mortality rate is thus reduced, and people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) live longer and
have more risk of developing diabetes mellitus. Despite the benefits of screening for T2DM on
mortality reduction among PLWHA, this practice is not routinely performed in Rwanda.
Therefore, data on the burden of T2DM in PLWHA and associated factors are limited in this
country.
