本文介绍的数据来自一项简短的，匿名的，开放式的调查，50名行为研究专家在艾滋病毒预防。31名参与者提供了他们认为近年来美国艾滋病毒流行率持续存在的主要原因，以及他们认为我们如何最有效地降低美国目前的艾滋病毒感染率。新感染率持续存在的原因有四类：干预水平原因、社会水平原因、个人水平原因和多重风险因素原因。为降低目前的发病率提出了三组战略：改进艾滋病毒预防工作的针对性，大规模改变艾滋病毒预防，将艾滋病毒预防纳入社会的更多方面。审查结果的目的是提供一个新的视角，为解决目前的艾滋病毒流行病的潜在手段。
This paper presents data from a brief, anonymous, open-ended survey of 50 behavioral research experts in HIV prevention. Responses were received from 31 participants who provided input regarding the primary reasons they believe the rate of the HIV epidemic in the United States has persisted in recent years, and how they believe we can most efficiently decrease the current rate of new HIV infections in the United States. Four clusters of reasons suggested for the persistent rate of new infections: Intervention level reasons, Society level reasons, Person level reasons, and Multiple Risk Factor reasons. Three clusters of strategies suggested for decreasing the current rate: Improved Targeting of HIV Prevention efforts, Larg-Scale Changes to HIV prevention, and Integrating HIV Prevention into more aspects of society. Results are reviewed with the objective of providing a fresh perspective on the potential means for addressing the current HIV epidemic.
