The science and practice of HIV prevention.

摘要

Prevention as a strategy to defeat HIV finally came of age at the International AIDS Conference in Vienna last week. The call for "an all-out, unprecedented effort towards HIV prevention" was made by Peter Piot and colleagues in The Lancet 2 years ago. At the beginning of the Vienna meeting, Julio Montaner's study of highly active antiretroviral treatment on HIV transmission in British Columbia, Canada, further showed that treatment and prevention are indivisible. As HIV intervention strategies, they are intimately connected.
