6. U.S. government calls for an AIDS-free generation AIDS-free generation Virtually no children born with HIV infection Adults living with HIV don’t develop AIDS Accelerated declines in HIV incidence Combination prevention Antiretroviral treatment as prevention Prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) Voluntary medical male circumcision Correct & consistent condom use

7. National HIV/AIDS Strategy for the United States Reduce new HIV infections Increase access to care and improve health outcomes for people living with HIV Reduce HIV-related disparities and health inequities Achieve a more coordinated national response to the HIV epidemic

8. New CDC approach to HIV prevention in the U.S. Funding to places most in need, for populations most in need, for programs that work Funding determined by number of people living with HIV Supports innovative demonstration programs by Health Departments 75% of proposed activities in 4 program areas HIV testing and linkage to care Comprehensive HIV Prevention with Positives Condom distribution Initiatives to promote prevention and accountability, particularly viral load

9. Effective prevention interventions Coverage of these evidence-based interventions remains limited InterventionEfficacyCoverage PMTCT With effective PMTCT programs, HIV transmission can be reduced to 2-4% 48% Antiretroviral Treatment as Prevention 96% reduction in HIV transmission47% Male Circumcision>60% efficacy 4.6% (14 priority countries) HIV Vaccine?31% efficacy Vaginal Microbicide39% efficacy; 54% among high adherers Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis Trial #1: MSM (44% efficacy; 74% among high adherers) Trial #2: High-risk women (no evidence of efficacy)
