To monitor prevalence associated behaviors reported injecting past 12 months, including MSM-ID, CDC's National Behavioral Surveillance (NHBS) conducts interviews testing populations at high risk for (MSM,...
In 2019, heterosexual sex accounted for 23% of new HIV diagnoses in the United States and six dependent areas (1). Although preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) can safely reduce risk infection among persons, this group is underrepresented PrEP research (2). CDC analyzed National Behavioral Surveillance (NHBS) data to describe awareness heterosexually active adults cities with high prevalence. Overall, although 32.3% who were eligible aware PrEP, <1% used PrEP. Racial, ethnic, gender disparities...

Guidance published by Centers Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests that number individuals with indications 1.1-1.2 million nationally based on survey data key populations local transmission patterns. We applied these estimates state county levels to determine who might from locally compared...
In 2017, rapid human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing services enabled the HIV diagnosis and treatment of approximately 15.3 million persons with infection in sub-Saharan Africa life-saving antiretroviral therapy (ART) (1). Although suboptimal practices misdiagnoses have been reported elsewhere, trends population burden rate false positive (false diagnosis) not (2,3). Understanding prevalence is fundamental for guiding policies practices. To help address this need, CDC analyzed data from...
