Abstract
Cryptococcal meningitis is the most common adult neuroinfection in sub-Saharan Africa and causes ~15%
of AIDS-related mortality globally. In the weeks prior to onset of meningitis, cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) is
detectable in the blood, and is a predictor of meningitis and death. CrAg screening in plasma is an effective
public health strategy to identify persons with CD4
