New Infographic on Reducing HIV in the Southern U.S. is Developed from Research by Hamilton, Jenness, and Goodreau
Posted: 2/8/2024 (CSDE Research)
Research by CSDE Scientist Dr. Deven Hamilton and CSDE Affiliates Dr. Samuel Jenness (Epidemiology, Emory University) and Dr. Steven Goodreau (Anthropology, UW), along with colleagues, was recently turned into an infographic (here), helpful for communicating their research to policy makers. Their research takes a closer look at HIV in the Southern U.S. and what efforts are needed to reach the Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) goals for reduced HIV incidence in the region. Findings dig into EHE efforts in the South, evaluating the impact of hypothetical improvements in ART as well as estimating the potential impact of expanding PrEP coverage among adults and adolescents — all with an eye toward achieving federal EHE goals. Findings have previously been released in several articles, including a first in BMC Public Health and a second in Plos One (previously featured by CSDE).
