Abstract

In the United States in 2004, 74% of the new AIDS cases and 70% of the new HIV cases were in men; in addition, 75% of the cases of HIV in women were classified as heterosexually acquired. These numbers make it clear that expanded prevention efforts for men who are infected with HIV would make a large contribution to containing the epidemic. This report explores epidemiologic and psychosocial issues related to prevention in men with HIV and compares how those variables relate to prevention efforts. The report ends with a discussion of a method to approach HIV risk reduction in clinical care settings.
