if anyone asks why in 2024 we’re still dealing with outbreak numbers of new HIV diagnoses… add to this:
• long acting injectable ARVs upwards of $7k/dose
• oral medication for HIV is upwards of $5k/mo supply
• injectable PrEP ~$4k/dose; oral meds ~$2k/mo.
• long acting injectable ARVs upwards of $7k/dose

Losses include the Behavioral & Clinical Surveillance Branch - which tracks and monitor trends in HIV diagnoses as well as drivers of HIV. Gone.
Some States will be OK, but many states - esp. red states - will suffer.

The UK remains among the top countries in the world for diagnosis (95% of all living with HIV are diagnosed), treatment (99% of diagnosed on treatment) and viral suppression (98% ‘undetectable’ - and so can’t pass the virus on sexually).
