人们对预防艾滋病毒的社会和结构干预措施的兴趣日益浓厚。 Such approaches modify social norms, institutions, laws, and policies to reduce vulnerability and create environments in which individuals can protect themselves against HIV infection.例子包括扩大注射吸毒者获得无菌注射器的机会,以及为低收入人群提供稳定住房补贴。 Evidence of the effectiveness of such interventions is emerging despite scientific and political obstacles to their development, implementation, and evaluation.美国政府可以帮助建立此类干预措施的证据基础。 It can also implement those with demonstrated or promising results as part of a cost-effective HIV prevention strategy domestically and globally. [健康阿夫(米尔伍德)。 2009;28(6):1655-65]
Interest in social and structural interventions for HIV prevention is growing. Such approaches modify social norms, institutions, laws, and policies to reduce vulnerability and create environments in which individuals can protect themselves against HIV infection. Examples include expanding access to sterile syringes for injecting drug users and subsidizing stable housing for low-income people. Evidence of the effectiveness of such interventions is emerging despite scientific and political obstacles to their development, implementation, and evaluation. The U. S. government can help build the evidence base for such interventions. It can also implement those with demonstrated or promising results as part of a cost-effective HIV prevention strategy domestically and globally. [Health Aff (Millwood). 2009;28(6):1655-65]
