Mobilizing civil society for the HIV treatment cascade: a global analysis on democracy and its association with people living with HIV who know their status.

Further analyses following wider implementation of universal testing and treatment is warranted, as well as the need for further research on the mechanisms through which political cultures specifically influence rates of diagnosis among PLHIV.
