In Rwanda, CGMs are currently not routinely used, and no clinical studies of CGM use were identified in the literature. The study objectives were to determine the impact and feasibility of real-time CGM use among people living with T1 D in Rwanda through assessment of sensor use; TIR; Hb A1c; and rates of hypoglycemia, diabetes-related hospitalizations (DRHs), and DKA.

Rwanda experiences a mixed HIV epidemic, which is generalized in the adult population, with an adult (15-49 years) HIV prevalence stabilized at around 2.6%, and aspects of a concentrated epidemic among specific key populations at higher risk of HIV infection, with a rate of 45% among FSWs [10] and 6.5% among MSM [11]. In Rwanda, MSM are considered one of the key populations for HIV prevention and care in the HIV and AIDS national strategic plan [12].

Digital mHealth and Virtual Care Use During COVID-19 in 4 Countries: Rapid Landscape Review
Wel Tel was launched in the Rwanda national emergency operations center for the COVID-19 response in mid-March, within a week of identifying the opportunity of using SMS to reach patients, as previous technologies to reach out to Ebola contacts that were online had limited uptake due to accessibility of the internet. Currently, the Wel Tel platform is being used for virtual home-based care of COVID-19 patients who are asymptomatic. Above 80% of people who tested COVID-19 positive in Rwanda are asymptomatic.
