In Reply We were pleased to read the letter from Edelstein and colleagues about successful HIV self-testing programs supported by the New York City Health Department since 2015. The distribution of HIV self-tests to men who have sex with men and to other at-risk populations has the potential to increase HIV testing, awareness of HIV infection, and to initiate access to treatment and prevention services for more than 150 000 people living in the country with undiagnosed HIV.1 HIV testing programs could distribute HIV self-tests via the internet, community-based organizations, or other avenues. To meet the goals of the federal Ending the HIV Epidemic initiative,2 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) encourages health departments and other organizations to support implementation of HIV self-testing programs. The CDC has information on HIV self-testing at https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/testing/self-testing.html.

在纽约市实施HIV自我检测计划-答复

在答复中,我们很高兴阅读Edelstein及其同事关于自2015年以来由纽约市卫生局支持的成功的艾滋病毒自我检测计划的信。艾滋病毒自我检测在与男性发生性关系的男性和其他人群中的分布高危人群有可能提高艾滋病毒检测水平,对艾滋病毒感染的认识,并有可能为该国未确诊艾滋病毒的15万多人口提供治疗和预防服务。1 HIV检测程序可以通过互联网,社区组织或其他途径分发HIV自检。为了实现联邦制止艾滋病毒流行计划的目标,2疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)鼓励卫生部门和其他组织支持实施HIV自测程序。CDC在https://www.cdc.gov/hiv/testing/self-testing.html上提供了有关HIV自我检测的信息。
