Description:Reducing transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the United States requires new strategies, including empha-sis on prevention of transmission by HIV-infected persons. Through ongoing attention to prevention, risky sexual and needle-sharing behaviors among persons with HIV infection can be reduced and transmission of HIV infection prevented. Medical care providers can substantially affect HIV transmission by screening their HIV-infected patients for risk behaviors; communicatingprevention messages; discussing sexual and drug-use behavior; positively reinforcing changes to safer behavior; referring patients forservices such as substance abuse treatment; facilitating partner notification, counseling, and testing; and identifying and treatingother sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
