Abstract

(Abstracted from JAMA 2019;321(23):2349–2360) Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can be transmitted from mother to child (MTCT) during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The number of perinatal HIV infections in the United States declined from 1985 to 2001 after routine prenatal screening was implemented across the country, along with the use of effective therapies for preventing MTCT.
