Book excerpt: Since President Obama released the nation's first comprehensive National HIV/AIDS Strategy in July 2010, a seismic shift in how the nation conducts HIV research, prevention, care, and treatment has occurred. Central to the Strategy is the unifying vision that "the United States will become a place where new HIV infections are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or socio-economic circumstance, will have unfettered access to high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and discrimination." Implementation of the Affordable Care Act, which has now extended health care coverage to millions of Americans, has a dynamic and evolving relationship with the Strategy that in coordination addresses the public health imperative to stop AIDS in the United States. In the nearly five years since passage of the Affordable Care Act and release of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy, the knowledge, tools and infrastructure at our disposal to prevent new infections and deliver care and services have changed dramatically (Figure 1). The Strategy's goals are to reduce new HIV infections, increase access to care and improve outcomes for people living with HIV, and reduce HIV-related health disparities. Last year, President Obama launched the HIV Care Continuum Initiative to further the goals of the National HIV/AIDS Strategy and galvanize the national response to HIV. The initiative directs Federal agencies to step up their efforts to improve outcomes by accelerating HIV diagnosis, linkage to and engagement in medical care, initiation of antiretroviral treatment, and sustainability of viral suppression. Federal agencies have responded to this call, and this report highlights some of the progress that has been made toward achieving HIV Care Continuum goals. These successes include introducing new population-specific awareness campaigns, developing innovative care delivery models, tackling stigma, discrimination, and other barriers to care, strengthening data collection and its use to improve outcomes and monitor resource deployment, prioritizing new health research, and building capacity to improve service-delivery, particularly at the state and local levels. Even with these advances, it remains clear that achieving our national goals requires further action: First, it requires enhancing our effectiveness in reaching those disproportionately impacted by the epidemic and improving their health outcomes. Data from Federal, state, and local sources suggest that less than a third of people with HIV achieve viral load suppression and accrue the full benefit of effective HIV medical care, which has the capacity not only to preserve health and extend life but also to reduce HIV transmission. In order to reduce the number of HIV infections in our country, we must focus and seize every opportunity to reduce geographic and demographic disparities in HIV care outcomes, especially among gay and bisexual men of all races and ethnicities, women and men of color, young people, transgender people, and persons living in southern states. Second, achieving our national goals requires sustained effort in every sector. Developing and maintaining effective partnerships among Federal, state, local, and tribal governments and private-sector partners is critical to accelerating our collective progress. This report highlights several successes in these areas including improved Federal collaboration, innovative demonstration projects that have ushered in new ways of working across agencies and sectors, listening sessions held in American communities, and meetings that have brought the voices of those working in the field to the White House, leading to exciting new public-private partnerships.

Book excerpt: The Nation's first comprehensive National HIV/AIDS Strategy for the United States (Strategy) was released in 2010, and in the subsequent five years, people and organizations have joined together around its vision and goals. The Strategy has changed the way the American people talk about HIV, prioritize and organize prevention and care services locally, and deliver clinical and non-clinical services that support people living with HIV to remain engaged in care, and has helped achieve the following: Implementation of the Afoordable Care Act; Groundbreaking work by the National Institutes of Health; Introduction of PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis); Vital work by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; Critical funding increases for the AIDS Drug Assistance Progra (ADAP) of the HRSA; and others.

This book was released on 2012-12-09 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years ago, the first cases of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) garnered the world's attention. Since then, over 575,000 Americans have lost their lives to AIDS and more than 56,000 people in the United States become infected with HIV each year. Currently, there are more than 1.1 million Americans living with HIV. Moreover, almost half of all Americans know someone living with HIV. Our country is at a crossroads. Right now, we are experiencing a domestic epidemic that demands a renewed commitment, increased public attention, and leadership. The Office of National AIDS Policy was tasked with developing a National HIV/AIDS Strategy with three primary goals: 1) reducing the number of people who become infected with HIV; 2) increasing access to care and improving health outcomes for people living with HIV; and, 3) reducing HIV-related health disparities. To accomplish these goals, we must undertake a more coordinated national response to the epidemic. The Federal government can't do this alone, nor should it. Success will require the commitment of governments at all levels, businesses, faith communities, philanthropy, the scientific and medical communities, educational institutions, people living with HIV, and others. Countless Americans have devoted their lives to fighting the HIV epidemic and thanks to their tireless work we've made real inroads. People living with HIV have transformed how we engage community members in setting policy, conducting research, and providing services. Researchers have produced a wealth of information about the disease, including a number of critical tools and interventions to diagnose, prevent, and treat HIV. Successful prevention efforts have averted more than 350,000 new infections in the United States. And health care and other services providers have taught us how to provide quality services in diverse settings and develop medical homes for people with HIV. This moment represents an opportunity for the Nation. Now is the time to build on and refocus our existing efforts to deliver better results for the American people. The vision for the National HIV/AIDS Strategy is simple: “The United States will become a place where new HIV infections are rare and when they do occur, every person, regardless of age, gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or socioeconomic circumstance, will have unfettered access to high quality, life-extending care, free from stigma and discrimination.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AIDS in the World, Vol. 1, published in 1992, was the first full analysis of mankind's global confrontation with this disease. The AIDS scene, however, has been changing so rapidly that the need for a second volume was felt much earlier than expected. In AIDS in the World II, the authors extend the international comparisons from 38 countries to the entire world, and show that the AIDS pandemic has become increasingly fragmented within the world population. They present data that takes the discussion beyond the current understanding of the vulnerability of nations and communities to the worldwide spread of HIV, engaging in a detailed exploration of the social strategies that have enabled individuals to avoid infection. Mann and Tarantola chart a course into the future based on an incisive investigation of the global pandemic and response, the crucial lessons learned from the first decade, and their expert understanding of the scientific and social dimensions of the HIV challenge. The authors explain how the variety of reactions to the pandemic has contributed to a more advanced awareness of our vulnerability to HIV/AIDS, and offer a blueprint for an expanded global prevention effort. Intended to serve the information needs of all professionals involved in AIDS research and care, this volume's accessibility and clarity of writing make it highly suitable for the general reader as well.
