Description:In 2020, there were 30,692 persons with newly diagnosed HIV infection in the United States.1 Most infections occur following exposure to HIV from persons who are infected but not receiving medical care.2 Some of these persons have HIV that has not been diagnosed, others have HIV that has been diagnosed but are not linked to HIV medical care, and still, others are linked to HIV medical care but are subsequently lost to medical follow-up or not virally suppressed. A critical challenge for HIV prevention is to identify persons with HIV who are not in care, help them access care so they can receive treatment with antiretroviral therapy (ART), and help them remain in care. Studies have shown that there is no risk of sexually transmitting HIV by people who are virally suppressed and maintain a viral load of <200ml 3 Getting and staying on treatment as prescribed is key to viral suppression and improving health outcomes for people with HIV.
