Depoliticize Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection: A Commentary

[摘要] Public-health policy is inconsistent in its approach to the sexually transmitted disease human immunodeficiencyvirus (HIV). Nearly every health agency has politicized the reporting, finding, and contacting of HIV cases. There isalso no consistency among the various state health departments and the various federal health agencies. Until we have a uniform health policy that treats HIV infection as every other reportable sexually transmitted disease, we will make little progress toward controlling its inevitable increase in both cases and costs.
