Clin Infect Dis. 2011 Apr 15;52(8):1046-9. doi: 10.1093/cid/cir085.

Abstract

Modeling of expanding antiretroviral treatment to all HIV-infected adults already in care in San Francisco predicts reductions in new HIV infection at 5 years of 59% among men who have sex with men. Addition of annual HIV testing for men who have sex with men to universal treatment decreases new infections by 76%.
