Kenya: The cutting edge

July 8, 2008 at 1:51 pm · Filed under HIV/AIDS, HIV/SRH Integration

Here at the INFO Project, we usually post stories about male circumcision and HIV prevention on the Resources for HIV/AIDS and Sexual and Reproductive Health Integration site.  Recently, our colleagues at Plus News  submitted a video for inclusion on the site. The video, which can be accessed by clicking on the image below, discusses the new mobile circumcision pilot  program that Marie Stopes International has begun in the Nyanza province of Kenya.

Plus News filmed this short clip while visiting the mobile clinic. Kenya is getting ready to roll out a national male circumcision program following 2006 studies which showed that male circumcision may be one factor that may decrease a man’s risk of HIV infection.
