Résumé
Introduction : Depuis son apparition fin 2019 en Chine, les mesures de riposte contre l’infection à COVID-19 ont perturbé la prestation des services de santé primaires dont ceux liés au virus de l’immunodéficience humaine (VIH). En République démocratique du Congo, l’effet des mesures anti-COVID-19 (confinement) sur l’utilisation des services de prévention du VIH et de prise en charge des personnes vivant avec le VIH (PVVIH) reste peu décrit à ce jour.
Objectif : Comparer et comprendre l’effet des mesures anti-COVID-19 sur l’utilisation des services préventifs du VIH et de prise en charge des PVVIH dans les Centres de traitement ambulatoire (CTA) de Bukavu avant (octobre 2019 à février 2020) et pendant (mars à juillet 2020) la période des mesures anti-COVID-19.
Méthodes : Étude mixte multisite avec un devis séquentiel explicatif réalisée à Bukavu entre juillet et septembre 2021. La phase quantitative est observationnelle, descriptive, rétrospective et basée sur des données programmatiques issues des CTA. La phase qualitative, guidée par les résultats quantitatifs, est basée sur 31 entretiens semi-structurés avec les soignants et les PVVIH.
Résultats : Par comparaison avec la période pré-COVID-19, les mesures anti-COVID-19 ont entrainé une baisse de 11 à 20% des services de prévention du VIH et de prise en charge des PVVIH. Elles ont également induit les ruptures de stock d’antirétroviraux et de tests VIH, la réorganisation des services VIH, la contamination de certains soignants à la COVID-19 et le décès d’autres, ainsi qu’une baisse de l’utilisation des services VIH.
Discussion et conclusion : À Bukavu, les mesures anti-COVID-19 ont eu un impact négatif sur le parcours de soins des personnes à risque et infectées par le VIH. Elles ont entravé les progrès vers les objectifs : 95% des personnes dépistées au VIH, 95% des PVVIH sous traitement et 95% des PVVIH avec une charge virale supprimée.

Abstract
Introduction: Since its appearance in China at the end of 2019, the sanitary response to COVID-19 infection has disrupted the delivery of primary healthcare services, including those related to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). In the Democratic Republic of Congo, anti-COVID-19 measures (containment) effect on the use of HIV preventive and care services for people living with HIV (PLHIV) remains poorly described to date.
Objective: Compare and understand the effect of anti-COVID measures on the use of HIV prevention and care services for PLHIV in Outpatient treatment centers from Bukavu before (October 2019 to February 2020) and during (March to July 2020) anti-COVID measures.
Methods: Multisite mixed study with an explanatory sequential design carried out in Bukavu between July and September 2021. Quantitative phase is observational, descriptive, retrospective and based on programmatic data from Outpatient treatment centers (OTC). Qualitative phase, guided by quantitative results, is based on 31 semi-structured interviews with caregivers and PLHIV.
Results: Compared to the pre-COVID-19 period, anti-COVID-19 measures resulted in an 11-20% decrease in HIV preventive and PLHIV’s care services. They also led to stock outs of antiretrovirals and HIV tests, HIV services reorganization, some caregiver’s contamination with COVID-19 and death of others, and a drop in HIV services use.
Discussion and conclusion: In Bukavu, anti-COVID-19 measures have had a negative impact on the care of at-risk, HIV-infected people. They have hampered progress towards the objectives of 95% of people tested for HIV, 95% of PLHIV on treatment and 95% of PLHIV with a suppressed viral load.
