"To help set U.S. HIV prevention goals, determine prevention program needs, and project future healthcare costs, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Johns Hopkins University conducted an analysis1 that projects what the HIV epidemic in the United States might look like in 10 years under different scenarios. The CDC/Johns Hopkins study reveals that maintaining status quo HIV prevention efforts could put the nation on a dangerous trajectory, resulting in substantial increases in HIV and related costs to the U.S. healthcare system." - p. 1
