Abstract: WHO and UNAIDS are monitoring progress in scale-up and impact in these priority countries. As most countries have the key elements of programmes in place, the present report provides an overview of progress by the end of 2010 with a focus on the numbers of MCs performed for HIV prevention. In support of monitoring and evaluation (M&E), WHO and UNAIDS, in collaboration with PEPFAR, developed A guide to indicators for male circumcision programmes in the formal health care system3 in 2009, suggesting indicators that should be used by countries. Key indicators from the guide for which data were reported from at least some countries for 2010 and which are presented in this report include:
-number of MCs performed for HIV prevention;
-number and percentage of persons seeking MC services who were tested for HIV.
