“…In future research, transnational practices and family ties in the lives of Latinxs in the U.S. need to be considered as dynamic and fluid factors changing over time according to personal and structural circumstances [17,25,26]. For instance: Mexicans living undocumented are directly affected by U.S. immigration laws [27], and those living with HIV face challenges in their continuity of HIV care when deported back to Mexico [28]. On the other hand, Puerto Ricans arriving with a one-way air fare paid by their families and seeking drug rehabilitation services in the U.S. may continue to struggle with chemical dependence, especially when those recovery services advertised in P.R.…”

Latinxs continue to be overrepresented in the U.S. HIV epidemic. We examined the transnational practices, family relationships, and realities of life of Mexicans and Puerto Ricans living with HIV in the continental U.S. We conducted qualitative interviews with 44 persons of Mexican and Puerto Rican origin participating in HIV care engagement interventions. Framework Analysis guided our data analysis. Among participants, a strong connection to the family was intertwined with transnational practices: communication, travel to their place of origin to maintain family ties, and material and/or emotional support. Separation from their family contributed to social isolation. Many participants lacked emotional support regarding living with HIV. Transnational practices and family relationships were intrinsic to the experiences of Mexicans and Puerto Ricans living with HIV in the continental U.S.; and may help understand the points of reference, health-seeking behaviors, and support sources that influence their health, well-being and engagement in HIV care. Keywords Mexican and Puerto Rican Latinxs • Living with HIV • Transnationalism • Family relationships • Engagement in HIV care ResumenLatinxs continúan estando sobrerrepresentados en la epidemia del VIH en EE.UU. En este estudio examinamos las prácticas transnacionales, relaciones familiares y las realidades de vida de Latinxs de origen mexicano y puertorriqueño viviendo con VIH en el área continental de EE.UU. Realizamos entrevistas cualitativas con 44 personas de origen mexicano y puertorriqueño participando en intervenciones para la vinculación a la atención médica del VIH. Nuestro análisis de la información estuvo guiado por Framework Analysis. Entre los participantes, una fuerte conexión con sus familias estaba entrelazada con prácticas transnacionales, incluyendo la comunicación, viajes a su lugar de origen para mantener vínculos familiares, y apoyo material y/o emocional. La separación de sus familias contribuía al aislamiento social. Muchos participantes no contaban con apoyo emocional relacionado con el vivir con VIH. Las prácticas transnacionales y relaciones familiares eran parte intrínsica de las experiencias de vida de Latinxs de origen mexicano y puertorriqueño viviendo con VIH en el área continental de EE.UU. Examinar dichas prácticas y relaciones familiares puede ayudar a comprender los puntos de referencia, comportamientos de cuidado de la salud y fuentes de apoyo que influencian su salud, bienestar e involucramiento en la atención del VIH.

“…Detention and fear of removal have perverse health consequences for immigrants with HIV (Rhodes et al 2015). Medical care in detention is substandard, even compared to the incarcerated population (Page et al 2018;Venters et al 2009). Deportation disrupts HIV treatment and exposes sexual minorities to violence and discrimination at home (Page et al 2018).…”

Deportation disrupts HIV treatment and exposes sexual minorities to violence and discrimination at home (Page et al 2018). Depending on the state, conviction under an HIV non-disclosure law may make an immigrant ineligible for asylum or trigger removal from the US (Velez 2013).…”

Persons living with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) (hereinafter, "PLHIV") face barriers at each stage of the criminal justice process, including prosecution for non-disclosure of HIV status. Justice institutions reinforce the stigma of HIV, which has perverse consequences for HIV prevention and treatment services. This article takes a critical criminological approach to "HIV criminalization," using the frames of queer criminology and epidemiological criminology to analyze both the punishment of "deviant" sex and the public health consequences of HIV stigma. Finally, this article offers a comprehensive consideration of the criminal justice barriers that PLHIV face in light of current criminological research, providing both mainstream and critical criminologists new insights into the social construction of deviance, legitimacy of institutions, definition of victims, and purposes of punishment.
