Abstract

Background: Disclosure of HIV positive status of children is an essential component of HIV care services in the long-term disease management. It is a complex process, and it varies from community to community. Therefore, it is important to understand the disclosure status, determinants, and to explore the reason. Thus, this study aimed to assess disclosure status of children, associated factors, and reasons for not to disclose among caregivers in the Northwest part of Ethiopia.
