Enhanced HIV testing, treatment, and support for HIV-infected substance users.

摘要

However, despite substantial increase in HAART use since 1996, HIV incidence has not decreased during the past decade in most industrialized countries. In the United States, it is estimated that 55 400 new infections per year have occurred for die past decade.3 This is in part because at least 20% of HIV-infected individuals are unaware diey are infected, and diese individuals disproportionately account for new HIV transmissions. To optimize case finding, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended expanded HIV testing practices, including "opt-out" HIV testing in health care settings to optimize case finding.
