      <title>Dear Colleague: HIV Surveillance Reports</title>
      <description>This Dear Colleague letter announces the publication of two new HIV surveillance reports and an AtlasPlus update. The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States led to disruptions in HIV testing services and access to clinical services throughout 2020. This disruption resulted in a steep, single-year decline in HIV diagnoses that is mostly attributed to declines in testing caused by less frequent visits to health centers, reduced outreach services, and shifting of public health staff to COVID-19 response activities. Given these disruptions, data for 2020 should be interpreted with caution. </description>

      <description>This NOFO is a re-announcement of PS22-2202. The purpose of this NOFO is to improve understanding of barriers and gaps in HIV prevention services that may lead to continued HIV transmission or delayed diagnosis of HIV. This NOFO will support enhanced surveillance of people diagnosed with HIV during the earliest and latest stages of infection (i.e., stages 0 and 3, respectively) to understand recent experiences with HIV prevention and testing services, as well as the system- and individual-level barriers that led to these failures in early diagnosis and prevention. Recipients of this NOFO will identify, locate, and recruit all persons diagnosed in the past year with stage 0 or stage 3 infection in their jurisdiction for participation in behavioral interviews conducted by a CDC contractor.</description>

      <description>The Ending the HIV Epidemic: A Plan for America (EHE) initiative will leverage critical scientific advances in HIV prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and outbreak response. Throughout the initiative, the CDC will routinely release data on the 6 core indicators for EHE to allow for more timely monitoring of progress. The tables included in this report provide preliminary data on HIV diagnoses, linkage to HIV medical care, and preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) coverage. Data for the 3 indicators are provided at the national-, state-, and county-levels (EHE Phase I jurisdictions only). In addition to being preliminary, data for the year 2020 should be interpreted with caution due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on HIV case surveillance activities in state/local jurisdictions.</description>

      <title>2018 Preliminary Edition, Volume 30: Diagnoses of HIV Infection in the United States and Dependent Areas, 2018</title>
      <description>The annual HIV Surveillance Report provides an overview on the current epidemiology of HIV disease in the United States 
and dependent areas. CDC funds state and territorial health departments to collect surveillance data on persons diagnosed with HIV infection; all personal identifiers are removed from these data before being transmitted to CDC via a secure data network. Data are analyzed by CDC and then displayed by age, race, sex, transmission category, and jurisdiction (where appropriate).  Prior to the 2008 reporting year, the report was referred to as the HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report. </description>

      <title>Surveillance Report: Diagnoses of HIV Infection in the United States and Dependent Areas, 2017</title>
      <description>The annual HIV Surveillance Report provides an overview on the current epidemiology of HIV disease in the United States and dependent areas. CDC funds state and territorial health departments to collect surveillance data on persons who have received a diagnosis with HIV infection; all personal identifiers are removed from these data before being transmitted to CDC via a secure data network. Data are analyzed by CDC and then displayed by age, race, sex, transmission category, and jurisdiction (where appropriate). Prior to the 2008 reporting year, the report was referred to as the HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report. The report is published annually in the fall.</description>

      <title>MMWR: Age-Associated Trends in Diagnosis and Prevalence of Infection with HIV Among Men Who Have Sex with Men - United States, 2008-2016</title>
      <description>In 2016, two thirds of diagnosed human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections in the United States were attributed to male-to-male sexual contact. During 2008-2016, the annual number of diagnoses of HIV infection increased 3% per year among MSM aged 13-29 years, decreased 4% per year among those aged 30-49 years and was stable for MSM aged ≥50 years. The number of HIV diagnoses among MSM aged 13-29 years was four times that of MSM aged ≥50 years. During 2008-2015, the number of MSM aged ≥50 years living with diagnosed HIV infection (prevalence of HIV infection) increased an average of 11% per year and at year-end 2015 was three times that of MSM aged 13-29 years.</description>

      <description>Act Against AIDS is launching Doing It My Way, a micro-campaign that makes HIV testing personable and relatable by highlighting how and why people make testing part of their lives-on their terms and in their way. We want to hear personal testaments of why testing is important, what motivates people to get tested and stay healthy, and how people get tested-be it at home, at the clinic, or with the company of a friend or loved one. We're encouraging everyone to share their stories using the hashtag: #DoingItMyWay.</description>

      <description>Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is a substantial health concern for the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and for service members stationed throughout the world. Each year, approximately 350 new HIV infections are diagnosed in members of the U.S. military services, with most infections acquired within the United States. Among 769 service members prescribed preexposure prophylaxis (PrEP) during February 1, 2014-June 10, 2016, 87% were MSM. In a survey of health care providers, 49% rated their knowledge of PrEP as poor, and 29% reported ever having prescribed PrEP.</description>

      <description>HIV diagnoses analyzed by age groups revealed striking differences in rates of diagnosis of HIV infection between ages 13-21 years. During 2010-2014, HIV infection diagnosis rates per 100,000 population varied substantially with increasing age among persons aged 13-15 years (0.7), 16-17 years (4.5), 18-19 years (16.5), and 20-21 years (28.6). HIV diagnosis rates were higher, but less variable, among persons aged 22-23 years (34.0), 24-25 years (33.8), 26-27 years (31.3), and 28-29 years (28.7).</description>

      <title>Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Sustained Viral Suppression and Transmission Risk Potential Among Persons Receiving HIV Care - United States, 2014</title>
      <description>In 2014, fewer blacks living with diagnosed HIV infection had sustained viral suppression (all viral load test results in 2014 less than 200 HIV RNA copies per mL) compared with Hispanics and whites. Among those who were in care and did not achieve sustained viral suppression, blacks had viral loads greater than 1,500 copies per mL for approximately half of the 12-month period in 2014; this circumstance can adversely affect their health outcomes and pose a risk for further transmission. Blacks aged 13-24 years had the lowest prevalence of sustained viral suppression.</description>

      <title>Notes from the Field: Public Health Response to a Human Immunodeficiency Virus Outbreak Associated with Unsafe Injection Practices - Roka Commune, Cambodia, 2016</title>
      <description>Cambodians receive 0.8-5.9 therapeutic injections per person per year, one of the highest reported rates worldwide. Appropriate medical injections and infusions can be health sustaining or lifesaving; however, improper administration can have detrimental health consequences, including infectious disease transmission. In 2000, it was estimated that worldwide, unsafe injection and waste disposal practices account for 260,000 new human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections annually.</description>

      <title>Status of HIV Epidemic Control Among Adolescent Girls and Young Women Aged 15-24 Years - Seven African Countries, 2015-2017</title>
      <description>Analysis of data from Population-based HIV Impact Assessment surveys conducted during 2015-2017 in seven countries in Eastern and Southern Africa found that the prevalence of HIV infection among adolescent girls and young women was 3.6%. Among those who were HIV-positive, 46.3% reported being aware of their status, and among those aware of their HIV-positive status, 85.5% reported current antiretroviral treatment (ART) use. Overall, viral load suppression among HIV-infected adolescent girls and young women, regardless of status awareness or current use of ART, was 45.0%, well below the UNAIDS target of 73%.</description>

      <title>HIV Infection and HIV-Associated Behaviors Among Persons Who Inject Drugs - 20 Cities, United States, 2015</title>
      <description>In 2015, National HIV Behavioral Surveillance found a 7% prevalence of HIV infection among persons who inject drugs which was lower than in 2012 (11%). Among HIV-negative respondents, 27% reported sharing syringes and 67% reported having vaginal sex without a condom in the previous 12 months; only 52% received syringes from a syringe services program and 34% received all syringes from sterile sources. HIV infection prevalence was higher among blacks (11%) than whites (6%) but more white persons who inject drugs shared syringes (white: 39%; black: 17%) and injection equipment (white: 61%; black: 41%) in the previous 12 months.</description>

      <title>HIV in the South Meeting Notes</title>
      <description>On April 19, 2017, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) held the HIV in the South town hall meeting to elicit individual participant feedback on addressing HIV-related health disparities in Deep South states (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas). The meeting's town hall format allowed invited participants-who were individuals with experience and expertise in conducting HIV prevention efforts in these states-to provide l feedback on their challenges, experiences, and suggestions for addressing HIV-related health disparities in the South.  The meeting notes provide an overview of key presentations and a summary of the facilitated and roundtable discussions. These meeting notes are not formal CDC recommendations, nor the collective opinions and perspectives of all invited participants. If you would like to share your comments on these notes or the meeting, please send them to HIVintheSouth@cdc.gov.</description>

      <title>Update to CDC's U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use, 2016: Revised Recommendations for the Use of Hormonal Contraception Among Women at High Risk for HIV Infection</title>
      <description>CDC's U.S. Medical Eligibility Criteria for Contraceptive Use (U.S. MEC) (first published in 2010 and updated in 2016) provides evidence-based guidance for the safe use of contraceptive methods among U.S. women with certain characteristics or medical conditions (1), and is adapted from global guidance from the World Health Organization (WHO) and kept up to date based on continual review of published literature (2). CDC recently evaluated the evidence and the updated WHO guidance on the risk for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition among women using hormonal contraception. After careful review, CDC adopted the updated WHO guidance for inclusion in the U.S. MEC guidance; this guidance states that the advantages of progestin-only injectable contraceptive use (including depot medroxyprogesterone acetate [DMPA]) by women at high risk for HIV infection outweigh the theoretical or proven risks (U.S. MEC category 2).</description>

      <title>HIV Care Outcomes Among Men Who Have Sex With Men With Diagnosed HIV Infection - United States, 2015</title>
      <description>In 2015, 19% of HIV infections diagnosed among MSM were classified as stage 3 (acquired immunodeficiency 
syndrome), and 75% of MSM with diagnoses of HIV infection were linked to care within 1 month. MSM who were black or African 
American and MSM aged less than 25 years were less likely to be linked to care within 1 month of diagnosis of HIV infection compared 
with other racial/ethnic and age groups.</description>

      <title>QuickStats: Human Immunodeficiency Virus Disease Death Rates Among Women Aged 45-64 Years, by Race and Age Group - 
National Vital Statistics System, United States, 2000-2015</title>
      <description>Among black women aged 45-54 years, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease death rate decreased 60% from 28.4 per 100,000 in 2006 to 11.5 in 2015. Among black women aged 55-64 years, the rate increased 42% from 10.0 in 2000 to 14.2 in 2008, before declining to 10.3 in 2015. Among white women aged 45-54 years, the rate decreased 53% from 1.9 in 2005 to 0.9 in 2015. Among white women aged 55-64 years, the rate did not change, remaining at about 0.8. Throughout the period, HIV disease death rates among black women were higher compared with rates among white women for both age groups.</description>

      <description>This analysis of 2014 and 2015 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data showed that transgender women and men self-reported a lower prevalence of HIV testing (both ever and in the past year) compared with gay and bisexual men whose gender identities match their sex assignments at birth (cisgender). Transgender women and men self-reported testing at levels similar to cisgender heterosexual men and women.</description>

      <title>Recommendations for HIV Screening of Gay, Bisexual, and Other Men Who Have Sex with Men - United States, 2017</title>
      <description>CDC concludes that the evidence, programmatic experience, and expert opinions are insufficient to warrant changing the current recommendation (annual screening for MSM) to more frequent screening (every 3 or 6 months). Therefore, CDC's 2006 recommendation for HIV screening of MSM is unchanged; providers in clinical settings should offer HIV screening at least annually to all sexually active MSM. Clinicians can also consider the potential benefits of more frequent HIV screening (e.g., every 3 or 6 months) for some asymptomatic sexually active MSM based on their individual risk factors, local HIV epidemiology, and local policies.</description>

      <title>Changes in the disparity of HIV diagnosis rates among black women-United States, 2010-2014</title>
      <description>This study suggests that the disparity in HIV diagnosis rates for black women, compared to Hispanic/Latina and white women, may be decreasing, a good sign that targeted prevention efforts are working. However, disparities have not disappeared, and black women continue to have a much higher rate of HIV diagnoses than Hispanic/Latina or white women. CDC remains committed to implementing high-impact prevention approaches that can reduce HIV infections among all blacks.</description>

      <title>HIV care outcomes among blacks with diagnosed HIV-United States, 2014</title>
      <description>A second MMWR article highlights the need for strong efforts to improve care outcomes among blacks living with HIV. At the end of 2013, only 49% of blacks living with diagnosed HIV had a suppressed viral load-the lowest proportion for any race/ethnicity in the United States. CDC is working with our partners to increase linkage to and retention in care and viral suppression for blacks living with HIV and to address the social determinants of health, such as poverty and discrimination, which contribute to health disparities.</description>

      <title>2015 HIV Surveillance Report</title>
      <description>The annual HIV Surveillance Report provides an overview on the current epidemiology of HIV disease in the United States and dependent areas. CDC funds state and territorial health departments to collect surveillance data on persons diagnosed with HIV infection; all personal identifiers are removed from these data before being transmitted to CDC via a secure data network. Data are analyzed by CDC and then displayed by age, race, sex, transmission category, and jurisdiction (where appropriate). Prior to the 2008 reporting year, the report was referred to as the HIV/AIDS Surveillance Report. The report is published annually in late summer or early fall.</description>

      <title>Cluster of HIV Infections Attributed to Unsafe Injection Practices - Cambodia, December 1, 2014-February 28, 2015</title>
      <description>The largest cluster of new HIV infections ever attributed to unsafe injections among a general population was reported in a rural area of Cambodia; 2.7% of residents were infected. The outbreak was detected after increased demand for HIV testing by residents who perceived themselves to be at risk after exposure to an unlicensed provider of injections and intravenous infusions.</description>

      <title>MMWR:  Adaptation and National Dissemination of a Brief, Evidence-Based, HIV Prevention Intervention for High-Risk Men Who Have Sex with Men</title>
      <description>Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM) are affected disproportionately by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the United States. Although approximately 3% of the adolescent and adult U.S. male population is estimated to have engaged in same-sex behavior in the past year (1), in 2011, MSM accounted for 65% of the estimated 49,273 new HIV infections and 82% of the estimated 38,825 HIV diagnoses among all males aged ≥13 years (2). Sexual risk behavior accounts for most HIV infections among MSM, and anal intercourse without a condom is the primary route for transmitting HIV infection to an uninfected person.</description>

      <title>MMWR: The HoMBReS and HoMBReS Por un Cambio Interventions to Reduce HIV Disparities Among Immigrant Hispanic/Latino Men</title>
      <description>Hispanics/Latinos in the United States are affected disproportionately by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs); however, few effective evidence-based prevention interventions for this population exist. This report describes the Hombres Manteniendo Bienestar y Relaciones Saludables (Men Maintaining Wellbeing and Healthy Relationships) (HoMBReS) intervention, which was developed by a community-based, participatory research partnership in North Carolina and initially implemented during 2005-2009.</description>

      <title>MMWR: Occupational HIV Transmission Among Male Adult Film Performers - Multiple States, 2014</title>
      <description>This is the first well-documented work-related HIV transmission among male adult film performers. A performer was infected by a non-work-related partner who was not aware of his HIV infection. The performer, having tested negative by nucleic acid amplification test within the preceding 14 days, and unaware of his very recent HIV infection, infected another performer and a non-work-related partner. Viruses in all four HIV infections were highly genetically related, indicating a transmission cluster.</description>

      <description>The findings in this report do not provide evidence that HIV-related risk behaviors alone drive the higher numbers of HIV diagnoses among young black MSM compared with young Hispanic and white MSM. In fact, young black male students who had sexual contact with males in this report often had a lower prevalence of HIV-related risk behaviors.</description>
