• Description:
  This report summarizes findings from the first NHBS-Trans data collection cycle, which was con- ducted in 2019–2020. Transgender women, especially transgender women of color, are disproportionately affected by HIV 8. This report provides descriptive, unweighted data that can be used to describe HIV infection among transgender women and the percent- ages of transgender women reporting specific behav- iors, HIV testing, access to care, participation in prevention programs, gender-affirming medical treat- ment, experiences of abuse and harassment, and sui- cidality. Collecting these data is useful for assessing risk, access to care and treatment, the use of preven- tion efforts, and other social structural factors affect- ing HIV prevention opportunities for this population. ; Suggested citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
