Lesotho, a small, landlocked country completely surrounded by South Africa, is among the world's poorest nations with one of the world's most severe epidemics of HIV and tuberculosis (TB). There is strong evidence that TB patients who are also infected with HIV have better survival rates if they begin antiretroviral therapy (ART) soon after starting TB treatment; however, there are many patients who do not initiate ART within the recommended timeframe, and who do not remain in care.
