China began to pilot prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in 2001 under its National PMTCT Programme, and gradually scaled up the interventions to more counties. In 2010, China developed the integrated PMTCT strategies for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B.33 By 2015, the integrated National PMTCT Programme covered all counties in China. In 2014, the proportion of pregnant women tested for HIV, syphilis and hepatitis B increased to 98.2 per cent, 99.5 per cent, and 98.9 per cent, respectively. This has significantly helped with identification, with comprehensive interventions implemented for pregnant women infected with HIV/AIDS. Between 2005 to 2014, the service coverage for all interventions in the chart has increased notably.
