In their recent article in The BMJ (“Is elimination of vertical transmission of HIV in high prevalence settings achievable?”)1 Goga and colleagues make several important points, including that more realistic targets are needed to maintain momentum to reduce vertical transmission of HIV in countries with high prevalence. They also make a constructive proposal to encourage countries to use “dashboards” to track key coverage and process indicators, particularly during the “pre-elimination period,” and to encourage continuous programme assessment and use of data for improvement.
