HIV Testing Strategies for Health Departments to End the Epidemic in the U.S.

Abstract: An important goal of the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. initiative is the timely diagnosis of all people with HIV as early as possible after infection. To end the HIV epidemic, health departments were encouraged to propose new and innovative HIV testing strategies and improve the reach of existing programs. These activities were divided into 3 core strategies: expansion of routine screening in healthcare settings, locally tailored HIV testing initiatives in nonhealthcare settings, and specific efforts to … Show more

“…Our findings of higher percentages of HIV testing in more deprived communities can be explained by CDC-funded testing efforts being focused on high-priority populations, and this testing might partially explain the higher HIV diagnosis rates in these communities. However, SDOH factors shaped by income, education, wealth, and childhood and neighborhood socioeconomic conditions, which vary systematically by race/ethnicity groups, might also explain higher diagnosis rates as well as our finding of lower percentages of linkage to care and viral suppression in these communities (14,22,23). These findings suggest spatial social polarization, as demonstrated by the ICE measures, might contribute to poor HIV outcomes and disparities for Black adults by segregating them in more deprived communities (14).…”

“…The major HIV-1 strain in China is CRF07_BC (accounted for 41.3%), followed by CRF01_AE (32.7%), CRF08_BC (11.3%) and subtype B (4.0%) [3,4] . Many new approaches of HIV treatment have been con rmed effectively, but the researchers are still slowly getting closer to nding a true cure or useful vaccine to this disease, life-long antiviral treatment is required and necessary for AIDS/HIV patients at least in quite a long future [5][6][7] . So the current strategy of AIDS/HIV prevention and control still focuses on stopping the virus transmission, and methods for accurate and quick detection are of great vital for the successful implementation of this strategy.…”
