Most HIV prevention programs at present (for example, the World Health Organization) are aimed at 15- to 24-year-olds ([1][1]). This age range unfortunately disregards the well-established fact that girls mature sexually two to three years earlier than boys ([2][2], [3][3]): Girls attain menarche (

Prevention of HIV Transmission
Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1988With screening of the blood supply and effective heat and chemical treatment of blood product derivatives, the overwhelming majority of newly acquired adult HIV infections will result from consensual acts, through the exchange of blood or sexual secretions.

In the decades since the emergence of HIV, numerous approaches to prevent transmission have been tested with varying degrees of success. Because a highly effective vaccine will not be available within the next decade, it is increasingly clear that preventing new HIV infections will require successful implementation of promising behavioral and ...

To the Editor.— It has been asserted repeatedly 1,2 that asymptomatic persons whose activities put them at increased risk for infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) should not volunteer for serological testing as recommended by the Public Health Service.

Remedicalizing an epidemic: from HIV treatment as prevention to HIV treatment is prevention
AIDS, 2011Bold claims of a ‘paradigm shift’ at the recentWorld AIDS Conference signal a striking remedicalization of our approach to the HIV epidemic and a return to the early 1980s view of the epidemic as a medical problem best addressed by purely technical, biomedical solutions whose management should be left to biomedical professionals and scientists [1 ...

Funding for hiv prevention, J. A. Catania and coauthors argue in their Policy Forum (27 Oct., p. [717][1]), is disproportionately allotted to those with heterosexual exposure risk at the implied expense of men who have sex with men (MSM).

The role of theory in HIV prevention
AIDS Care, 2000There is growing evidence that well designed, targeted, theory-based behaviour change interventions can be effective in reducing the spread of HIV. Although each behaviour is unique, there are only a limited number of theoretical variables that serve as the determinants of any given behaviour. Understanding these variables and their role in behavioural

Abstract PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis) is the prevention of choice for people at “substantial risk” of HIV infection. This trial not only randomized serodiscordant heterosexual couples to pre-exposure prophylaxis, but also gave all participants HIV-1 testing with counseling, risk-reduction counseling, screening and treatment for ...

Tackling the HIV epidemic takes many approaches. Treatment of those with HIV keeps them healthy, with a near-normal life expectancy and reduces onward transmission. The undetectable = untransmissible (U=U) campaign is based on strong evidence that people with sustained undetectable viral load on effective antiretroviral therapy do not pose any risk of ...
